Visitor
Age Concern Canterbury managed by Volunteering Canterbury
Provide social support to an older person via regular visits of about an hour per week, share interests and activities and provide support where possible to make other community contacts.
Many older people in our community are lonely and isolated as they receive few or no visitors. Age Concern Canterbury's Visiting Service helps reduce this loneliness by providing friendship and companionship through a volunteer visitor, enhancing the wellbeing and quality of life of the older person.
