Job Description
Spread joy by joining our Volunteer Team
The HammondCare Volunteer program is a great way for you to make a meaningful difference in the life of an older person, right here in South East Sydney.
From sport to art, pets to gardening, walking to yoga, baking to craft, movies to music, coffee to crosswords... whatever you love, you can share it with someone who loves it too.
As a Volunteer Social Visitor, you will provide companionship and meaningful social interaction for older people living in your community.
Think you know all the moves on a chessboard? Volunteer your time and be challenged as you play the game with an elderly gentleman living in a residential aged care home in Kirrawee.
Your Impact
