Men's Group - Northaven Aged Care in Kerang

Northaven Aged Care Community in Kerang are looking for volunteers to help run a Men's Group designed to engage older male residents, many of whom may feel isolated. This role will provide our male residents with an opportunity to spend quality time with a new friend and enjoy a meaningful day together.

You’ll receive full site induction and support, ensuring you have a rewarding experience.

Activities include, but are not limited to:

• Engaging in conversations about current events, interests, hobbies, or anything that sparks a connection or reminiscing through photos/pictures.
• Accompanying older males on walks around the gardens.
• Organising and participating in activities like board & card games, trivia, & reading.
• Engage in some woodwork, gardening or painting.

Your time as a volunteer can provide our residents with a more engaging, fulfilling experience. Many of them have little or no family, and your friendship and support can make a world of difference. It’s an opportunity to brighten someone’s day and build meaningful connections.

Join an award-winning team! Our team & amazing volunteers were awarded the "Inclusive Volunteering Award" at the IVA Awards, 2 years running!!
