Job Description
Share a cuppa, a chat, and brighten the day of an elderly lady living at home in Rathmines.
Do you have a kind heart and a little time to spare? We’re looking for a friendly, caring person to brighten the day of an older lady in Rathmines who would love some regular company. A weekly or fortnightly visit over a cuppa and a good chat can make a world of difference — sharing stories, laughter, and friendship.
Our lovely client enjoys good conversation and simple moments of connection. Your visits could bring warmth, companionship, and a sense of belonging to her week — and you might just find it brightens your own days too.
If you believe that kindness, a listening ear, and a friendly smile can make someone’s life a little happier, we’d love to hear from you.
Time commitment: 1 hour per week (flexible)
Impact: Deep, personal, and lasting
One hour a week can make a real difference.
If this sounds like you – or someone you know – we’d love to hear from you
Your impact
