Share a YARN as You Chit‑Chat & Click‑Clack! Knitting, Crochet or Sewing Volunteering.

Join residents at HammondCare Woy Woy for cosy, creative moments filled with conversation, connection, and the gentle rhythm of crafting together.

If you love knitting, sewing, crochet, or all three, this is a wonderful way to share your passion while helping residents with their current projects — or even spark a brand‑new one.

You’ll bring your friendly self, your skills, and your love of making things, while we provide all the resources you need. It’s a relaxed, social activity where stories are shared, creativity flows, and everyone enjoys the simple pleasure of crafting side by side.

A warm, rewarding way to give your time and brighten someone’s day.

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 clients you are matched with.
