Spread Joy, by joining our Volunteer Team! We’re looking for a friendly volunteer to spend time with a lovely older lady living independently in her home in Penshurst. A visit every fortnight, for around an hour at a time that suits you both, would make a big difference. She enjoys good conversation and has a passion for arts and crafts — she'd love to share that with someone during your visits. But don’t worry if creativity isn’t your thing — simply sharing a chat would be warmly welcomed. Please note: the client lives in a third-floor unit with stair access only. If you're keen to support someone in your community — or would like to volunteer with HammondCare in a different way — we’d love to hear from you. Apply today, and we’ll be in touch to chat about the many opportunities available. 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 people feel less isolated. HammondCare is a provider of The Aged Care Volunteer Visitor Scheme funded by the Australian Government and is established to promote links between elderly people and volunteers in their local community. HammondCare HammondCare is an independent Christian charity and we're passionate about improving the quality of life for people in need. We have a wonderful group of volunteers that partner with us to enhance the lives of people cared for by HammondCare.
