More volunteers are urgently needed to spend quality time with children from families affected by disability.
Kids' Companions is a great opportunity to spend time with a child - either in a group or with individual children.
Being a volunteer with the Kid's Companions Program is a lot of fun and can enrich your life - you can offer a few hours once a week, fortnight or a month or be available during school holiday time.
You will give kids a chance to feel part of the community, experience a close connection with trusted adults, and join in social and recreational activities.
For more information please email kcinfo@marymead.org.au<mailto:kcinfo@marymead.org.au> or contact us 6162 5800.
