💙 A Familiar Voice, A Meaningful Connection
Could you brighten someone's day with a friendly chat and a listening ear?
An older person living in our dementia-specific cottage would benefit from the companionship of a Lebanese-speaking volunteer who can share conversation, cultural connection, and social engagement.
Through regular visits, you'll have the opportunity to build a meaningful relationship, share stories, and help create moments of comfort, familiarity, and joy.
What you'll do:
• Spend time chatting and providing companionship
• Share language, culture, and life experiences
• Encourage social connection and engagement
• Build a warm and trusting friendship
• One-hour visits, weekly • Monday to Friday • Either at 10:00am or between 1:00pm and 3:00pm • Visits take place in a dementia-specific cottage.
This is a wonderful opportunity to make a genuine difference in someone's life while sharing the comfort of language, culture, and human connection.
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.
