Caves Beach, New South Wales, Australia HammondCare Volunteers Full time $40,000 - $60,000 per year
Drives, Chats & Country Yarns - Volunteer to Brighten the Day of a Local Legend in Caves Beach

Do you enjoy a scenic drive and a good chat? We're looking for a friendly volunteer to spend time with an older gentleman in Caves Beach who would love some company for a weekly or fortnightly drive and conversation.

He's a retired farmer with a passion for the land, merino sheep, and the simple pleasures of country life — and he's got a treasure trove of stories to share. Add in his love of sailing and the coast, and you're in for some rich and memorable conversations.

If you've got a kind heart, a car, and a little time to spare, this could be the most rewarding drive of your week.

No special skills required — just a listening ear and a friendly smile.

HammondCare is a provider of The Aged Care Volunteer Visitor Scheme funded by the Australian Government and is established to promote links between elderly people and volunteers in their local community.
