Volunteer Companion Opportunity – Bensville

A lovely lady in Bensville is looking for someone who enjoys good conversation, a relaxed outing, and the occasional chat about her much\-loved guinea pigs. 

She lives on her own and prefers getting out and about rather than having visitors at home, so this role is all about sharing simple outings and good company.

Things she enjoys:

• Coffee and a chat
  


• Live music (her absolute favourite!)
  


• Trips to the cinema
  


• Exploring local cafés
  


• Nature walks
  

Bonus points if you appreciate guinea pig stories and believe animals make life better.

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