    Description

    Friendly Visitors needed

    We are looking for people interested in making friends. We serve the older community.. and many of our members do not go out enough due to age or other restriction.. so they would love to get a friendly visitor visit them..

    Sometimes just to chat and help them feel good and connected

    Sometimes for a short walk around the block..

    Sometimes to share a cup of tea or coffee

    Sometimes play a game (or cards)..

    And always to have a friendly listener.. and share a good laugh..

    Do you have an hour or so to spare -- then this would be a great opportunity for you. For children under the age of 18 -- we would like you to have an adult with you when you visit.
