Take a Walk, Change a Day — Companion Walks with a Gentleman at HammondCare Darlinghurst
Sometimes, all it takes to brighten someone's day is a short stroll and good company. We're looking for friendly volunteers to join one of our residents — a kind and thoughtful gentleman — for relaxed walks around the neighbourhood.
These gentle outings offer more than just fresh air. They're a chance to share stories, exchange a few laughs, and simply be present. Your company helps support his mobility, lifts his spirits, and brings a welcome change of pace to his day.
No special skills needed — just a warm nature, a steady step, and a little time to spare.

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 people feel less isolated.
