Activity Assistant Volunteer - Fun & Games Thursday Afternoons ACT Dementia Australia is the national peak body for people of all ages living with all forms of dementia, their families and carers. We provide advocacy, support services, education, and information. Our fun and games social support programs are held on Thursday afternoons in our Griffith/Manuka location. Social connections play an important role in maintaining cognitive function in dementia. Older adults with cognitive impairments such as dementia are at heightened risk of loneliness and depression. Often, their cognitive difficulties are related not only to memory problems but also to problems with interacting and engaging socially with others. We hope to help people living with dementia or mild cognitive impairment maintain or enhance their social engagement and quality of life by providing inclusive social activities with peers, dedicated staff and volunteers. Volunteers are essential to the aged care system, the wider community and Dementia Australia. Volunteers can help our clients to: live meaningful lives have a sense of belonging and purpose build social connections remain living at home reduce social isolation and loneliness connect with the community feel accepted and safe in their environment improve their physical and mental wellbeing Our Dementia Australia community will highly value your contributions of genuine connection, conversation, and compassion in improving the quality of life of people in the early stages of their diagnosis.
