Social Companion - Scrabble Wiz - Maryborough

CPL - Choice Passion Life
Logo for CPL - Choice Passion Life

CPL Volunteers contribute to our mission of an inclusive society for all people; extending social connections with clients, reducing social isolation; and enhancing CPL services by sharing skills, time and mutual interests. We are always looking for volunteers to come and join our team, so we'd love to hear from you!

Would you like to know what it’s like to volunteer at CPL? We have volunteer roles in companionship, sport, administration and much more!

Wordsmiths we want you! Beat the boredom and become a board game champion!

It’s the age old question; shall we play Monopoly or Scrabble… it’s got to be Scrabble of course! Did you know the highest score for one word in Scrabble was 392! Do you know what the word was? Join a local Scrabble whiz at their home and exercise your brain every week, who knows you might even get a 393-point word!

As the volunteer Social Companion – Scrabble Whiz you will be:

  • Conducting friendly, professional encounters with a client
  • Creating positive social connections with a client in their home
  • Engaging in social activities with a client, centred around a mutual interest in playing Scrabble
  • Sharing your skills and passion in playing Scrabble with a client
  • Encouraging and engaging a client to pursue and develop their hobby/interests

You will not be responsible for:

  • Any personal support; e.g. manual handling, personal care, administration of medication or meal assistance. These activities will be carried out by qualified support workers.

This volunteer opportunity is available at a time that suits your schedule, between the hours of 9am - 5pm.  When you're free, we'll welcome you! You will be responsible for organising your transport to and from the location of this CPL role.

Make a difference and support people with a disability to live the life they choose!

Please note, at CPL all staff and volunteers must hold either a valid Blue Card with Yellow Card Exemption or a Yellow Card. CPL will assist you to apply for these cards which are free for volunteers.

You can not apply for this role as it is no longer available.
