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 The Shire.
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 their own home.
We are seeking a friendly volunteer to visit an Elderly Lady at home for a cuppa and a chat. Our client loves to reminisce, she has a large extended family and would enjoy meeting a Greek speaking volunteer to visit her weekly/fortnightly for an hour. Her background is broad, having been in the financial industry, dress maker and a coffee shop. She enjoys long walks, creative arts, reading, sudoku and tv soaps. Please reach out if you would like to meet our client and Volunteer with HammondCare.
