Volunteer support provides companionship, and helps people engage more with their community. This [free service](https://www.hammond.com.au/hubfs/HCAH/HCAH-Guide-to-Fees-Charges-Brochure.pdf) focuses on clients’ unique interests and passions. We’ll pair you with a suitable volunteer within the local area who understands your individual needs and lifestyle.

##### **Did you know?**

HammondCare’s volunteer support service is complimentary and an exclusive benefit in addition to the services we offer as part of your [Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) funding](https://www.hammond.com.au/care/home-care-costs). There are no out of pocket expenses to worry about. We will match you with a volunteer who shares the same interests as you – it could be cooking, gardening, shopping, walks on the beach or a visit to an art gallery, just to name a few ways volunteers can help. Please ask your Care Manager; they can arrange a volunteer to match your lifestyle choices and passions. You can contact us anytime 24/7 on 1800 826 166.
