Volunteer

Senior Support & Companionship

Our companionship volunteers visit seniors in their homes or aged care facilities for a minimum of six months.

Weekly and fortnightly visits include:

• sharing stories over a cup of tea
• mutual hobbies and interests
• watching TV or listening to the radio
• reading books or newspapers
• walking and outings
• shopping assistance
• home visits

Many seniors speak languages other than English. Please let us know if you are bilingual or multilingual and we will match you appropriately.
