• Developing your skills, gain experience and explore new opportunities.
• Having the opportunity to connect with people from all walks of life.
• Making new friends.

What does Volunteering Involve?

Volunteering even a small amount of time makes life much brighter for both you and the people you’ll get to know. There are several ways you can volunteer at Craigcare -

• Activity Buddy - This could include taking part in our home activities such as our Men’s Shed, walking groups, board games, knitting groups, reading, reminiscence chats, gardening, baking, or playing a musical instrument,
• 1:1 Buddy - This could be as simple as coming in for a regular chat and a cuppa with one of our residents.
• Spiritual Support Buddy - Providing emotional and spiritual support to our residents and their families.
• Weekly outing bus driver – This would involve driving our residents to local community destinations and enjoying the community sites and activities on offer together

• NDIS for volunteers (or willingness to obtain)
• Police check (in case you don't have NDIS Clearance for volunteers)
