You'll be helping Red Cross to support vulnerable people across Australia.
The program states that having good social connections is essential for all aspects of health, especially as we age.
Red Cross Transport supports people who are older or have a disability and who have no means of getting to non-urgent medical appointments or social outings.
Volunteers provide a door-to-door transport service helping clients strengthen their capacity to participate in community life, maintain or regain independence, and stay living in their own home.
For this role you will need good conversational skills and the ability to relate to and empathise with a broad range of people, including those with different lived experiences, abilities, and will be comfortable using computers.

As a student in a student placement you will help vulnerable older people to feel safe and improve their social connection by listening, empathising, and providing them with a friendly voice.
You will have the opportunity to learn from many people's diverse history and knowledge as well as feeling the satisfaction of giving back.
