An individualised service where a volunteer is matched one to one with a client, based on similar interests, skills and personality to provide companionship, social engagement and support to engage in activities that enable the older person to maintain a sense of meaning and purpose, even in times of increasing frailty. Activities may include social outings, home visits, getting out and about in the community, learning together, sharing interests (music, cooking,crafts, model trains etc), doing things together (eg. shopping /movies/ arts), capturing and/or sharing life stories and more. All activities are personalised and are designed around the needs and interests of the client. This program has a particular focus on the Treasured Stories Project, which helps share the life stories of older people with others in the community.
