Caring for people through aged care volunteering
Wilma has been volunteering in aged care since 2021 at Kalyra Woodcroft.
‘During Covid, my workplace closed down and I had to re-evaluate my life. My husband was in an accident and I became his carer. I like helping people, so that’s when I decided to volunteer.’
Wilma provides a lot of support to aged care residents, such as assisting with meals, cleaning and activities.
‘I like serving people, talking with them, having a laugh and just feeling like I am doing something worthwhile. It’s nice to help people, you feel better if you help them.’
Make a positive impact to older people in your community by finding aged care volunteering opportunities.
