We are looking for a kind and caring people to become Volunteer Visitors and provide friendship to socially isolated residents living in Aged Care homes in the Cleveland and Thornlands areas.

Visits may include enjoying a chat over a cup of tea, take a short walk in the garden or perhaps do a simple activity together (eg. board game, puzzle, easy craft).

Regular fortnightly visits provide the resident with valuable friendship. Through this regular one-to-one visiting great friendships can be formed. These visits from a Volunteer Visitor can help to improve the quality of life of the older person and help them to feel less socially isolated.

Volunteering as a Volunteer Visitor can be a very rewarding experience. By becoming a friend to an older person, you can make a positive difference to their lives as well as your own.
