Around 40% of aged care residents across Australia experience some form of isolation or loneliness. You can help to decrease this statistic by volunteering as a community visitor for just one hour per week or per fortnight to provide compassion, companionship and friendship.

“I am so grateful for the volunteer opportunity that your organisation gave to me. Because of your guidance and my vision, I am now studying to be a youth worker and starting my student placement. I cannot explain how happy I am right now and excited about making a difference in my community”

“I have volunteered for the Home Visitor program and have found it very rewarding. I was partnered with a lovely man and over coffee we have wonderful conversations about our lives, the world, and our own philosophies of life. It is a very important part of my weekly routine now and when I can’t visit, I miss it. The people at CVS are very helpful and supportive.”

“Realising the joy of giving without expectation through volunteering has been an invaluable experience for me. The sense of belonging with VGC has added to the experience.
The support, guidance and encouragement the approachable team provides is absolutely wonderful too. Thank you, Volunteering Gold Coast, for enriching my volunteering journey!”
