Meet Kathy, one of our dedicated Community Care volunteers.
After more than 20 years volunteering with older people in both community and residential aged care settings, Kathy understands the incredible impact of connection.
“Volunteering certainly fulfils my life in a very special way because I see and feel the difference my weekly visits make.”
For Kathy, volunteering is about friendship, listening, sharing stories, and reminding older people that they are valued.
“Older people have so much knowledge and experience. Hearing their stories and sharing time together creates beautiful friendships.”
Volunteering creates connection for both the person receiving support and the person giving their time.
Could you make room for connection?
