You might not have an 'immediate' Old Mate in your life, but there are still plenty of ways to participate!

Not all Old Mates have many immediate friends and family themselves, and studies show that it's these Old Mates that are more likely to be experiencing poor mental health.

Below are range of possible volunteering avenues for you to Google in your local area:

‍

· Retirement village

· Hospital

· Aged care facility

· Meals on Wheels

‍

With each of the above, simply give them a call or email to see whether they need or accept volunteers.

Important

Many organisations have limited time and resources. Recruiting new volunteers requires a lot of time and admin work on their end. So, if you're going to volunteer make sure you follow through on what you say you will.
