Volunteering is a two way street. The benefits include:

• Enhancing the experience and satisfaction of an older persons life
• Forming new and rewarding relationships, with our clients, staff and other volunteers
• Being able to exercise and enjoy your unique skills and interests. (We are almost certain to have one or more people who share these interests)
• Volunteers develop new skills and insights that contribute to their life outside of Rangiura
• Good volunteering is about matching people and needs to the benefit of everyone.

Rangiura volunteers come from all walks of life including:

• Retirees who wish to meet new people, share their skills and interests and stay active
• Professionals who want to contribute their skills and networks to community service
• Students and school groups whose lives are enriched by the interest, interaction and coaching of elders
• Service Groups such as Rotary, Lions,  Red Cross, Church Groups and RSL, St John Ambulance to name but a few
• People with skills to share
• People with a talent for entertainment and music
• Anyone can be and benefit from being a volunteer
