Support volunteers wanted

 

The Multicultural Social Support Service is currently seeking new volunteers to assist clients around the Peninsula who have migrant backgrounds.

Publicity officer Ms Sharlene Huber said the service was looking for volunteers who had compassion for the elderly, people with disabilities and their carers.

They would be helping someone once a week or once a fortnight.

"We provide assistance with friendly home visits; accompanying clients shopping, bill-paying; trips to and from medical appointments; and social activities.

"Our team of Volunteers are provided with training opportunities throughout the year and are reimbursed for their expenses."

For more information, telephone 4322 1211.
