Description: |
Do you want to retain or refresh your Cantonese, Vietnamese or Italian conversational skills? Become a friendly visitor to Home Care clients whose native language is not English, and who wish to converse in their native tongue. Home Care clients often have mobility issues so aren't able to get out as much and would enjoy someone to visit with. Play games, go for coffee, or simply reminisce together. |  |
