Kerikeri Retirement Village Companionship (cards, tea, books and more)

Looking for volunteers to keep our wonderful residents company! Play cards, read to someone or accompany them on walks, share their hobbies, play music or just sitting down for a tea with the residents.

Volunteers are a vital part of life at Kerikeri Retirement Village, too. We have more than 50 people, ranging from pre-schoolers to centenarians, delivering a range of services to our residents. But we’re on the hunt for more, so if you’re thinking of doing something a little different with your spare time these are some of the activities you could help with.

This can include reading to older individuals who have sight impairments, a stroll in the gardens, playing card games or playing music, and doing their hobbies with them. It's all about companionship and creating a connection.
