Host Volunteers

Would you like to regularly share some time with a child with a disability?

Friend. Mentor. Extended Family

As a host volunteer, we will carefully match you with a child/young adult with a disability with whom you will share your time with on a regular basis, from a few hours to a full weekend each month.

You will be providing them with a home away from home and new experiences amongst your family and friends.

Their own family will have this time to get a break from their carer role and together you each contribute toward breaking down barriers and increasing inclusion within the wider community. 

As a host volunteer you do not need to have experience with disability support, just a willingness to open your heart and home to share the care. 

Contact our host coordinator on 9758 5522 or email host@ioe.org.au
