Volunteers

It's the little things that count. While an hour of your time may not seem like much, it can be a priceless contribution to someone else's life. Choosing to donate your time to others is a rewarding experience that not only enriches lives, but also brings you great satisfaction.

In 2017 Catholic Healthcare completed a research project with the University of Western Sydney. The report called “On the Brim - Impact of Volunteer Support on Vulnerable Elderly”, demonstrated that regular visits from a volunteer provided positive benefits on the quality of life and health outcomes for clients.
