Community Social Visitor

About the role

HammondCare, an independent Christian charity providing the Aged Care Volunteer Visitor Scheme funded by the Australian Government, is looking for a friendly social volunteer in Padstow. You would spend about one hour each week visiting a lady who needs a helping hand in the garden and enjoys creative and relaxing hobbies such as painting, fishing, knitting and reading. Your company would make a meaningful difference, helping to improve quality of life and reduce isolation.

Key responsibilities

• Visit the lady once a week or every two weeks, for about one hour, between 9am and 4pm, Monday to Sunday.
• Share her hobbies or simply chat while gardening together or spending a quiet moment indoors.
• Bring a smile and a helping hand to brighten her week.

Required profile

• Aged 18 or older.
• National Volunteer Police Check arranged and paid for by HammondCare.
• Availability for a weekly or fortnightly visit; the exact time can be discussed.
