Community Social Volunteers, Hammond at Home Padstow, Panania and Picnic point.

Spread Joy, by joining our Volunteer Team!

The HammondCare Volunteer program is a great way for you to make a meaningful difference to the life of an older person, right here in South West Sydney.

From sport to art, pets to gardening, walking to yoga, baking to craft, movies to music, coffee to crosswords… whatever you love, you can share it with someone who loves it too.

As a Volunteer Social Visitor, you will provide companionship and meaningful social interaction for older people living in your community.

We are seeking people with a passion to give back in their community of South West Sydney by visiting an elderly person living in their own home across Panania, Picnic Point and Padstow. Your visits could include a walk around the garden, game of cards or simply chatting together over a cuppa.
