We need you!
We are the only non-profit, community-led aged care provider in Kerikeri. Our Village was developed by the community, for the community. We are looking for people to help residents in our Care Facility.
If you have some spare time and would like to make a difference to our people, we’d love to hear from you.
Even if you can only spare an hour a week, you could make a world of difference to our less physically able residents who are not able to get out often. A friendly face and a chat about what’s happening in the world can really brighten their day, especially if they don’t have a lot of family living nearby.
We don’t expect you to do any heavy lifting or take care of their physical needs, we have plenty of qualified staff on hand to take care of all that.
Simple tasks like helping some of our less able residents to read or write letters, arranging flowers or helping them select library books gives them something extra to look forward to.
There is so much to be had by spending time with our residents. The amount of life experience within our village is extraordinary, and fascinating to connect with. Conversations about earlier lives can be endlessly fascinating. Our volunteers tell us that they get as much enjoyment out of spending time with our residents as our residents get from their help and company.
Interested? Please fill in the form below or just drop us a line at volunteer@kerikerivillage.co.nz.
Thank you so much!
