Volunteer to change lives. Yours included.
This volunteer opportunity will help to make a meaningful difference by engaging with residents and assisting the lifestyle team by contributing to the diversity of day‑to‑day activities. The social interaction, mental stimulation and physical activity that stems from these activities is a valuable part of our residents’ day and the care provided. From playing games to singing or simply enjoying a cup of tea with a resident, there is no limit to the unrealised opportunities to contribute using your own personal interests and hobbies.
We welcome volunteers to share whatever your skills, passions and availability may be, with our residents to help make their day.
