A Listening Ear & Gentle Company – Community Volunteer | Forestville

Volunteer | Hammond Care Volunteers | Australia

We're looking for a warm, compassionate volunteer who enjoys conversation, listening, and building meaningful connections.

Our client is a friendly and easy-going lady living in Forestville who loves a valuable chat and sharing treasured memories. Family is at the heart of her life, and she enjoys reminiscing about special moments with her children, grandchildren, and late husband.

She also delights in sharing the stories behind the souvenirs and keepsakes displayed throughout her home.

A regular visitor would provide the prospect for meaningful conversation, companionship, and connection.

Recently, her memory has begun to decline, and she now spends much of her time at home watching television. Regular social visits and engaging conversation would make a genuine difference to her wellbeing and brighten her days.

This volunteer prospect would suit someone who naturally brings:
A friendly, patient, and understanding approach
A genuine interest in listening to life stories and cherished memories




Confidence in supporting an older person experiencing memory changes
A warm conversational style and the ability to build rapport
Reliability and a commitment to regular visits

If you enjoy meaningful conversations, sharing a smile, and making a real difference in someone's life, we'd love to hear from you.

Sometimes the greatest gift you can give is simply your time, your kindness, and a listening ear.

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.

Requirements
18 years or older
National Volunteer Police Check arranged and paid for by Hammond Care

We'd be happy to discuss a suitable time during the week for a one hour visit between 9am and 4pm Monday to Sunday; visits could be weekly to fortnightly depending on your availability.
