Volunteers are vital in our Aged Care facilities

In Australia, roughly 229,000 elderly Australians entered aged care facilities between 2017 and 2018, and there are over 2,000 aged care facilities all over the country. While they have their own dedicated staff, volunteers are often vital for the success of these facilities and the health of the residents.

Next week is Homelessness Week – how we support this important event

Homelessness Australia coordinates their annual Homelessness Week to raise awareness of more than 116,000 homeless Australians. It sheds a light on the issues Australia's homeless population faces each day, and suggests ways that we can help remedy the situation.
