Our volunteer visitors are empathetic and curious; they find ways to connect and show genuine appreciation for the happiness of others. They play a vital role in the life of an older person through ongoing friendship.

Making a new friend can make all the difference to an older person experiencing loneliness and isolation. It can bring improved physical, mental and emotional health. To be able to converse, reminisce and share a laugh brings joy and feelings of self-worth.

This particular lady is keen for her new friend to take her for a walk outside the facility and around the local area. If you would like to make a new friend and get some fresh air & exercise at the same time we would love to hear from you.

Before commencement, visitors are given access to our excellent onboarding program which includes:

• An interview with your coordinator • Police check (free) • Two referee checks • Two quality online training modules

Excellent verbal and non-verbal communication skills are required, including a strong commitment to others through this voluntary role.
