Make Someone’s Weekend – Join Our Volunteer Team! Looking for a meaningful way to spend your weekend? The HammondCare Volunteer Program offers a special opportunity to bring joy, connection, and companionship to older people in your community. Whether you love sports, art, gardening, pets, baking, yoga, music, movies, or simply a good chat over coffee—you can share your passions with someone who’ll truly appreciate them. As a Weekend Volunteer Social Visitor, you’ll spend time one-on-one or in small groups with residents in a care home, offering genuine connection and heartfelt moments that brighten their day—and yours. Give just a little of your weekend, and make a lasting difference in someone’s life. Please note: Volunteer interviews and Orientation must take place on a weekday during business hours. 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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxFDDi9bS6c HammondCare HammondCare is an independent Christian charity and we're passionate about improving the quality of life for people in need.
