  Visits are relaxed, rewarding, and flexible. You may enjoy one\-on\-one visits with residents or join small group activities where your pet can be the star of the show!

  Whether you have a gentle dog, calm cat, or another suitable companion animal, your visits can make a meaningful difference to residents' wellbeing and quality of life. No special skills are required, just a caring nature and a pet that enjoys being around people.<\/i><\/b>

    Your impact<\/b>
    <\/p>

    Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits from volunteers can help to improve quality of life and help people feel less isolated.
