A Cuppa, a Song and a Friendly Face - Community Volunteer Visitor

A Cuppa, a Song and a Friendly Face

An older lady living in an aged care community in Greystanes is seeking the companionship of a volunteer to share some of life's simple pleasures.

She enjoys spending time chatting over a cup of tea, listening to music, singing familiar songs, and watching movies. A friendly visit filled with conversation, shared interests, and companionship would bring warmth and enjoyment to her week.

Sometimes it's the simple act of sitting together, sharing stories, and enjoying each other's company that can make the biggest difference.

Visits are preferred after 11am or after lunch on Thursdays.

If you enjoy connecting with older people and would like to help brighten someone's day through friendship and companionship, this could be the perfect volunteer opportunity for you.

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 client you are matched with.
