Emergency services volunteer availability & training
Emergency services: know who's available and qualified. Availability and training at a glance.
Availability by text, training records in spreadsheets and equipment checks on paper. We build availability and training systems for volunteer units.
Looking for volunteer availability software for emergency services?
Volunteer units need to know who's available and qualified. We build availability, training and equipment tools that support your existing systems.
Wollopit builds member portals, booking systems, volunteer rosters and websites for emergency services volunteers around how your organisation actually runs. We connect the tools you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so your people can focus on the community instead of the admin.

06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your emergency services unit: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things emergency services volunteers ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Does it replace our paging or callout system?
No. It supports it with availability, training and equipment records.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your emergency services unit. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build. We know budgets are tight and we'll help you stage it.
Can volunteers use it without training?
Yes. We keep it simple enough that a new volunteer can pick it up on their phone in a few minutes.
Can it take donations, memberships and bookings?
Yes. Payments, renewals, receipts and bookings can all run online, with reports for your committee or board.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most emergency services volunteers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
