Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme
Join the Volunteer team and be a friend to an older person in your community
Why volunteer with ACVVS?
You can make a difference in someone’s life by joining the volunteer team at Lifeline WA’s Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme. Simply by spending time with someone, playing a game, reminiscing, sharing a cup of tea or a walk around the neighbourhood, you’ll be bringing companionship to people who have little or no contact with family or friends, enhancing their health and happiness.
If you are 18 years or over, ideally visiting once a week, or fortnightly you can expect a fulfilling relationship with an older person in your community. Share your skills, meet other volunteers and have the satisfaction of helping others. Induction, training and National Police Clearance will be provided.
