Spread Joy, by joining our Volunteer Team!
The HammondCare Volunteer program is a great way for you to make a meaningful difference to the life of an older person, right here in Hunter.
From sport to art, pets to gardening, walking to yoga, baking to craft, movies to music, coffee to crosswords… whatever you love, you can share it with someone who loves it too.
As a Volunteer Social Visitor, you will provide companionship and meaningful social interaction for older people living in your community.
Do you enjoy talking about politics? We’re looking for a friendly person who would love to brighten the day of an older gentleman at Fishing Point who would love to have a coffee and a chat weekly or fortnightly.
Your impact
Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits from volunteers can help to improve quality of life and help older people feel less isolated. Your visits will bring great joy to the clients you are matched with.
