National Volunteer Week 2024: ‘Something for Everyone’

National Volunteer Week is Australia’s largest annual celebration of volunteering and will be next held on 20-26 May 2024. This special week provides an opportunity to highlight the important role of volunteers in our community.

At its core, volunteering is about people: people doing things for others, for their community, and for the planet. Volunteering is simultaneously a deeply personal and collective pursuit. It involves an intentional choice to contribute time and energy to activities and causes that make a difference and add value to the world. Volunteering connects us all and has a positive impact on the wellbeing of communities and volunteers, providing a sense of achievement and purpose. (Australian Department of Social Services).

Eldercare has a strong culture of volunteering. We are fortunate to have over 300 volunteers contributing their time and talents in a wide range of areas, including social support and activities with residents, maintenance and gardening, allied health, hospitality, chaplain support, IT, and various administration roles.

Volunteers play an important role in helping Eldercare provide the highest level of service to our residents and deliver peace of mind with our care.
