Volunteer WHS and insurance
Volunteer groups within the Murraylands and Riverland region can access free insurance with SAFA through the Murraylands and Riverland Landscape Board.
Please read the information sheet about the nature of independent community group insurance cover.
Complete the online form 2025-26 Murraylands and Riverland Independent Group Insurance Renewal to apply for independent community group insurance.
Before starting the renewal application, please have the following information close by:
- Your volunteer hours and numbers for the previous year (a list of activities undertaken is not required)
- Your landholder letter/s if you are intending to complete on-ground works for the following financial year. Approvals from Council and private landholders.
- The location of the activities you intend to undertake for the upcoming year. Remember, these activities can be updated during the year as required by sending an email prior to your event for it to be kept on file.
The form allows you to upload 4 landholder letters. If you have more than these, email them directly to Chris Fulton, Project Officer Community Engagement at Christopher.fulton@sa.gov.au
Every time you work at a different site, a landholder approval is required, send a copy to the Volunteer Support Officer and save it to your file to be deemed compliant by SAFA.
*Please note that the form cannot be saved and then completed at a later date. There are mandatory fields that must be completed before the form can be submitted. But you are able to open the link and view everything that needs to be completed prior to entering any data.
Once we’ve received the form, a copy of your application will be emailed to you for your records. When approved, you will receive a letter of confirmation and can request a certificate of currency directly from the insurer if required.
