Overview
Looking for a meaningful way to spend your weekend? The HammondCare Volunteer Program offers a special opportunity to bring joy, connection, and companionship to older people in the Upper Hunter.
Whether you love sports, art, gardening, pets, baking, yoga, music, movies, or simply a good chat over coffee—you can share your passions with someone who’ll truly appreciate them.
As a Weekend Volunteer Social Visitor, you’ll spend time one-on-one or in small groups with residents in a care home, offering genuine connection and heartfelt moments that brighten their day—and yours.
Give just a little of your weekend, and make a lasting difference in someone’s life.
Responsibilities
- Spend time with residents as a Social Visitor, either one-on-one or in small groups, to provide connection and companionship.
- Engage in activities or conversations based on shared interests (e.g., sports, art, gardening, pets, baking, yoga, music, movies, or casual chats).
- Support residents to feel less isolated and improve quality of life through regular visits.
Your impact
Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits can help to improve quality of life and reduce feelings of isolation.
