Volunteering Support

Get Involved! Anglicare NT has a range of meaningful volunteer opportunities in key program areas.

The Community Visitors Scheme involves befriending and visiting a socially isolated older person living in an aged care facility or in their own home on a regular basis(minimum 1 hour per fortnight). Aged care recipients come from a variety of social and cultural backgrounds and Community Visitors of all ages and backgrounds are welcome.

Meals on Wheels volunteers in Alice Springs help make it possible for older people to stay living in their own home. Delivery of a meal and a quick chat makes living independently a possibility, preventing or delaying a transition into an aged care facility.
