Job Description We are looking for enthusiastic and caring individuals who can sit and have a chat, reminisce, and talk about topics of interest with people in their own homes. You may want to spend some time in the garden, play cards, listen to music, or do some arts and craft activities. Or perhaps go to a local coffee shop.
Do you enjoy puzzles and games? We're looking for a friendly person who would love to brighten the day of an older lady in Scone who is in need of some company for a cuppa and a chat once a week or fortnight.
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 clients you are matched with.
