Can you spare just one hour a week to make a meaningful difference in someone’s life?

We're currently looking for compassionate volunteers in:

- Rowville

- Wheelers Hill

- Vermont

- Clarinda

As a Volunteer, you'll be matched with a client who shares similar interests, hobbies, and passions, making it easy to build a genuine connection and enjoy time together.

Our clients live independently at home and would love the chance to spend time with a friendly, reliable companion. Whether it's sharing stories, playing a board game, or simply enjoying a good conversation, your company can make a world of difference.

What You'll Do

- Enjoy relaxed chats and get to know someone new

- Share common interests and experiences

- Play games, complete crosswords, or watch a movie together

- Provide companionship, connection, and friendship

We're Looking for Volunteers Who Are:

- Warm, friendly, and good listeners

- Reliable and able to commit around one hour each week

- Interested in building meaningful relationships

- Compassionate and willing to make a positive impact

No Experience Needed

You don't need any special skills or previous experience—just kindness, empathy, reliability, and a willingness to connect with others.

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 older people feel less isolated.



Your visits will bring great joy to the client you are matched with.
