Community Companion

Ever been told you that you're a good listener, or that your calm presence helps others feel at ease?

What you could be part of:

• Visit a person in their home and spend time with them and their family members
• Have a chat, a cuppa, or share some quiet time
• Listen to memories, share stories, or talk about everyday things
• Support carers or family members by giving them a short break

It’s not about having all the answers - it’s about being a kind presence when it matters.

What you’ll gain:

• A deep sense of purpose
• Supportive training and ongoing guidance
• A friendly volunteer network
• Recognition for your time
• Travel and expenses covered

Kindness doesn’t have to be big to be life-changing!
