LEISURE TIME
General introduction
- An inclusive and caring outreach program which encourages positive relationships
- Serves housebound or isolated seniors (65yrs +) from the Glen Waverley area.
- Operates 1st Monday of the month except for public holidays.
- This program is organised by a management committee. The costs are covered by guest gold coin donation, the free use of the church fellowship area and a small community grant from Monash Council.
* There are approximately 35 volunteers who give their time as drivers, hosts, kitchen support, and making the refreshments.
How can GWUC assist Leisure Time?
- Raise awareness of what Leisure Time does and pray for both guests and helpers
- Explore links between Leisure Time and other GWUC groups to maximize outreach
- Most of our volunteers themselves are seniors. New volunteers, both men and women, are most welcome for the roster and on the committee
- Provide input and ideas to the committee about ways to improve or modify what we do.
