The Friendly Visitor Program is for people living in or around Bright who have very little social contact, are lonely, have a disability, who may be frail aged or housebound.
The aim of the program is to match a volunteer with a community member called a “visitor” to develop a friendship. Together they share in a variety of activities, for example: a walk in the garden, a cuppa and a chat, crafts, puzzles or play a game of cards on a weekly basis. The friendship assists the person being visited to enjoy a more satisfying and active life.
