Friendly Visitor Volunteer - Aged Care Volunteer

Do you enjoy having a cuppa and a chat with a lonely or isolated senior? Join our program to develop new skills and make a meaningful difference in someone's life.

The role

Our In Great Company program will match you with a senior in your community to offer companionship, friendship, and support, helping to ease feelings of social isolation. Your visits will brighten their day and foster a sense of connection, making both you and the person you support feel valued and appreciated.

Need to know

The cost of the Nationally Coordinated Criminal History check will be covered by IGC.

Our mission is to truly understand what is important to our clients and to deliver an experience that exceeds expectations. We encourage dreaming big and working together to help others realize their dreams, no matter how big or small.

In Great Company Volunteering is funded by the Department of Health, Disability & Ageing under the Aged Care Volunteer Visitor program.
