Can you help AgeConnect Kapiti reach out to older people in all parts of Kapiti who feel lonely or isolated? We are eager to hear from you if you are able to volunteer a few hours of your time to help with our programmes.
AVS
Could you be a volunteer visitor?
Age Concern Kapiti’s Accredited Visiting Service (AVS) has been successfully established for many years. The aim is to increase social connections for older people living in Kapiti.
Our AVS visitors range in age, can be male or female and come from different backgrounds. A common thread is the wish to make a difference in the life of an older person.
If you are able to give an hour or so of your time each week, are warm and friendly, enjoy a chat and respect confidentiality, please contact us to find out more.
Intergenerational connections
Our intergenerational initiative with Zeal was a tremendous success. We are now planning further initiatives with Zeal and the Kapiti Youth Council. Let us know if you would like to become involved.
