Community Volunteer - Birkdale, Cleveland and Mt Gravatt
Advertised by Volunteering Queensland
St John Ambulance QLD is looking for volunteers for a life-changing program that supports regular volunteer visits to give friendship and companionship to the elderly in Birkdale, Cleveland and Mt Gravatt.
Becoming an aged care volunteer visitor can be a rewarding and life-changing experience. You will make a friend, share stories and help someone who might be feeling isolated or lonely.
Volunteers usually visit for an hour once a fortnight at a time that suits you both. During a visit a volunteer and an elderly person can do anything you both feel like doing, such as: • enjoy a chat over a cup of tea • take a walk • work on a joint hobby together.
ACVVS volunteers do not undertake any clinical or home care duties as part of their visits.
Make this the year you volunteer and brighten the life of an older person in Birkdale, Cleveland and Mt Gravatt.
