Eunice at ACH Group

From volunteering to landing the job

For Eunice, aged care works

In February 2024, Eunice landed the job of her dreams after working with ACH Group as a volunteer.

After two months volunteering, she had formed strong connections with residents and loved the workforce culture.

“I was warmly welcomed and immediately connected with the residents and the other workers,” she said.

“It didn’t take long for me to think ‘my goodness, I would love to work here’.

“I didn’t go in to volunteering thinking it would transform into a career I love – but it has.”

Eunice said volunteering can be an excellent way into a profession that gives you a unique insight into the work and the organisation prior to beginning.

“For me volunteering was the best place to start,” she said.

ACH Group’s new retirement living walking groups are bringing residents together for gentle, guided walks that support both physical and cognitive wellbeing.🚶‍♀️

The walking groups offer more than just exercise. It’s motivation, social connection, and a chance to catch up with friends.

Last week, during Brain Awareness Week, residents were reminded that supporting brain health doesn’t have to be complicated - sometimes it’s as simple as putting one foot in front of the other. 👣

For Helena, staying active is deeply personal and she was quick to join her local group in Marden. Both of her parents lived with dementia, shaping her commitment to looking after her brain and body.

💬“I love to read, do puzzles and play solitaire but I always find those things so much easier after a walk,” she says.

✨ A powerful reminder that small, everyday habits, and a few extra steps, can make a big difference to our brain health. 🧠💪

📸Here are a few snapshots from the group’s recent walk, featuring Helena (in the middle) alongside fellow residents Sue, Julie, Lou, Eileen and Marylin.
