Share Time in the Garden – Community Aged Care Volunteer Visitor Role
An older lady living independently in Morisset is looking for a volunteer to spend time with her in the garden.
She can no longer tend to her garden as much as she'd like and would love some company while enjoying the outdoors, along with assistance with light gardening and weeding.
Visits on a weekly or fortnightly basis would provide valuable companionship and help her continue enjoying one of her favourite hobbies.
If you enjoy gardening and a friendly chat, this is a wonderful prospect to make a meaningful difference.
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 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.
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.
