Job Description - Trains, plans & automobiles - Community Volunteer Social Companion



Could you brighten someone's week with a friendly visit and a genuine conversation? ☕✈️



We're looking for a kind, patient and empathetic volunteer to visit an older gentleman living independently in Beresfield. He enjoys relaxed chats over a cuppa and would love to build a meaningful connection with someone who is happy to listen and spend time together.



A former member of the Air Force and a lifelong motoring enthusiast, he enjoys talking about cars, aircraft, trains and transport history. Having owned several cars over the years, he has plenty of stories and experiences to share.



Visits can take place at his home, where you can enjoy good conversation and companionship. While not essential, occasional outings to a local café or club would be welcomed. He is able to use his mobility scooter when heading out.


This is a wonderful opportunity to make a real difference through simple friendship and regular social connection.




-When: Weekly or fortnightly visits after 10:00am




-Location: Beresfield




-Time Commitment: Approximately 1 hour per visit

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 people feel less isolated.
