GoCo Volunteers

Become a goco volunteer

What are Volunteers?

Volunteers are the backbone of the delivery of many GoCo services as part of the Commonwealth Home Support Program. Without our amazing team of loyal volunteers, many services delivered to our clients would simply not be possible.

As a GoCo volunteer, you will be helping to assist elderly and disadvantaged community members with activities like attending medical appointments, shopping trips and social functions.

Any assistance you can provide is much appreciated, GoCo volunteers are able to choose your times and days and nominate short term or long term commitments.

We will ask you questions about what you enjoy, your hobbies, interests, and skills to help to match you up to clients and tasks you will enjoy spending time with.

What GoCo volunteers do:

Volunteer roles are varied and what you will be asked to do will depend on your schedule, preferences and the GoCo office you are able to assist.

GoCo volunteers may perform the following positions depending on their location.

Many volunteers’ roles are based around providing company as well as support to our clients. We try as much as possible to match up like-minded people, or those with similar interests, so that our volunteers as well as clients enjoy their experience with GoCo.
