Local hospice needs a hand<br />
If you’re caring and community minded, and would like to<br />
make a difference supporting others, The Greater <strong>Trail</strong> Hospice<br />
Society is looking to connect with you!“<br />
We’d love to hear from anyone who could volunteer a bit of<br />
their time during the year to help us deliver our free programs.<br />
You could support local people who have a life-limiting illness,<br />
provide respite for caregivers or be a compassionate presence<br />
at the bedside of someone who is dying. We have so many<br />
kinds of opportunities available, and we’ll provide comprehensive<br />
training to anyone who is interested in getting involved.<br />
Being part of our close-knit team and providing support to our<br />
local community is a very rewarding experience,” says Board<br />
Chair Brenda Hooper.<br />
The aim of Hospice work, to help people live as independently<br />
as possible with the best quality of life, relies on the<br />
strength of its volunteering core. Volunteers listen, encourage,<br />
help people navigate changes, and provide a compassionate<br />
presence in homes, residential settings and at the bedside for<br />
those who need comfort and support.<br />
A caring and kind nature, as well as a genuine interest in<br />
people, is the backbone of every role within the hospice but the<br />
reasons for getting involved with the not-for-profit are diverse<br />
among its base of volunteers:<br />
“I volunteer because I want to hear and share life experiences,”<br />
says local Hospice Volunteer Doug.<br />
“I volunteer for Hospice because I know pain. I remember how<br />
helpless and lost I have felt and how much I needed someone<br />
that truly cared,” says local Volunteer Jim.<br />
“I’m a Hospice Volunteer because the experience of joy and<br />
giving unconditionally is both a gift to yourself and others,” adds<br />
local Volunteer Heather.<br />
“I volunteer for Hospice because everyone deserves compassion,<br />
even when life is limited by age or illness,” explains local<br />
Volunteer Jill.<br />
Not all volunteering roles require training. Opportunities<br />
range from providing fundraising support, to community education,<br />
becoming a Board Member to direct the future of local<br />
Hospice care, or helping with event organization. You could<br />
become a companion, Friendly Visitor or join the Navigator<br />
program and help those with chronic life-limiting illnesses.<br />
The Greater <strong>Trail</strong> Hospice Society offers free basic training<br />
workshops over two weekends this fall for volunteers, <strong>Sept</strong>ember<br />
30/October 1 plus October 15 & 16.<br />
