Help Friendship Bloom in Cooranbong! Community Social Volunteering

Do you enjoy gardening and being out in nature?

Our client in Cooranbong would love some support to spend time in her garden for a little weeding, fresh air, and a friendly chat once a week or once a fortnight.

For many years, the garden has been a place of peace, purpose, and enjoyment. While some tasks have become more difficult, the joy of being surrounded by flowers, plants, and nature remains as strong as ever.

We're looking for a volunteer who enjoys getting their hands dirty, sharing stories, and spending quality time with an older person in the community.

What could your visits involve?

• Light weeding and tidying in the garden
  
• Enjoying a cuppa and conversation
  
• Sharing gardening tips, stories, and favourite plants
  
• Spending time outdoors in the fresh air
  
• Providing companionship and connection
  

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.
