After Hours Peer Support - Saturdays

Baptist Community Services NSW & ACT (BCS) is a leading not-for-profit Christian organisation caring for people in NSW and the ACT and has been at the forefront of aged and community care for over fifty years.

Our vision is to maximise the independence of our clients through a variety of services and care options.Baptist Community Services, Auburn is seeking students who would be interested in volunteering in the following program.

Our After Hours Peer Support program provides social support to young adults between the ages of 14 – 25, who have a Disability and are living in the Auburn Local Government Area.

The program aims to expand the experiences, recreation and leisure options of clients by offering a wide and varied range of activities and outings.

We generally hold our outings every Saturday between 10am and 4pm, and we occasionally go out on Friday evenings. Our transport provides pick up from the clients’ homes and we drop them off back at home.
