Job description
Sow the Seeds of Friendship! Do you enjoy gardening, good conversation, and sharing cultural connections? We are looking for a friendly Social Volunteer to visit a gentleman for one hour each week and provide companionship through regular visits. This gentleman would love to spend time with someone who enjoys gardening, sharing tips, stories, and a passion for helping things grow.
He also enjoys playing Briscola, the popular Italian card game, and would welcome a volunteer who can join him for a friendly game. As an English and/or Italian-speaking volunteer, you'll have the opportunity to connect with him in either language, helping him stay socially engaged while building a meaningful friendship.
Whether you're chatting about the garden, playing cards, or simply enjoying a conversation over a cup of coffee, your company will make a real difference to his week. No special skills are needed beyond a friendly nature, a willingness to listen, and a love of connecting with others. If you're ready to help a friendship blossom, share a game of Briscola, and bring the joy of Italian conversation to someone's week, we'd love to hear from you.
Apply today and help grow a connection that's rewarding for both of you! 1-hour visits, weekly or fortnightly on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, between 10:00am and 5:00pm. We're happy to work around your availability. Your impact Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself.
