I would like to go for a walk around the block with someone.

For a friendly and modest elderly lady, born in 1941, we are looking for a buddy who wants to walk with her and offers her company and a listening ear in bad weather. The lady has a hernia and walks with a walker. She hasn't been outside in ages, she says. She is looking for a buddy who visits her once every 2 weeks. Mrs likes puzzles and likes to watch television. A point of attention is that the lady smokes, but she will not do this in front of the volunteer.

Job requirements:

• You are a good listener
• You are open minded
• You can take initiative, but above all give the other person the space to take it

What do we have to offer the volunteer?

• an enthusiastic volunteer team
• expert guidance and support
• basic training and meeting meetings
• WA and accident insurance
• travel allowance
