Volunteers at ACH Group

Welcome to our Volunteer Stories page.

Each video showcases the inspiring journey of individuals who have dedicated their time, skills, and life experience to make a difference in the ACH Group community.

Edward, volunteering at Kapara Residential Care Home

Edward is in his final year of school and has started his journey towards a career in medicine. He visits people living at Kapara on Sundays and is also working on a Year 12 project to encourage more younger people to volunteer in aged care.

Edward’s story was featured in the media release for National Volunteer Week 2024.

Janette and Addi, volunteering at Sing for Joy Choir

Addi and Janette volunteer on a Wednesday afternoon at the Sing for Joy Choir and are both retired. They believe volunteering gives you a purpose in life and encourages everyone to try it and find the right role for them. 

Johann, volunteering at ViTA Residential Care Home

Johann was initially introduced to ACH Group while doing her nursing placement at ViTA. She connected with one of the residents so much that she decided to come back on a regular basis as a social volunteer.

Su, volunteering at Healthia Residential Care Home

Su is currently studying at TAFE and volunteers on a Monday afternoon, teaching origami to people living at Healthia. Su found volunteering at ACH Group friendly and welcoming, and believes that if you have a warm heart and a big smile, you have everything you need to start.

A special visitor brought joy to residents at Perry Park Residential Care Home! 🤩🐎

Residents and staff loved meeting Saffron up close, sharing pats and reminiscing about their own experiences with horses.

Moments like these highlight the simple yet profound connection. Thank you to Kate, who was at Perry Park as part of her student placement. When she learned that residents like horses, she arranged a visit with Saffron.
