Spread Joy by joining our Volunteer Team!

The HammondCare Volunteer program is a great way for you to make a meaningful difference in the life of an older person, right here in the Illawarra.

From sport to art, pets to gardening, walking to yoga, baking to craft, movies to music, coffee to crosswords whatever you love, you can share it with someone who loves it too.

As a Volunteer Social Visitor, you will provide companionship and meaningful social interaction for older people living in your community.

Our Elderly Client in Kiama Downs is seeking a social visitor; our client enjoys snow sports and chatting about anything related to the snow. He would enjoy the company of a "mate" who he could sit and chat with over a coffee.

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 older people feel less isolated. Your visits will bring great joy to the client you are matched with.
