Make a Meaningful Difference in Paeroa – Join Our Grocery Shopping Volunteer Team!

We’re looking for friendly, reliable volunteers to support our Grocery Shopping Service in Paeroa. This is a rewarding way to help vulnerable and elderly members of our community maintain their independence and wellbeing.

Depending on the client’s preference, your role may involve either doing the grocery shopping on their behalf or accompanying them to the store. Either way, you’ll be offering more than just practical help — your regular, friendly contact can brighten someone’s day and ease the feeling of isolation many homebound people face.

All financial processes are securely managed, and full guidance is provided.

Can you commit to a weekly or fortnightly shop? If so, we’d love to hear from you.

Requirements:
  • Enjoys chatting and making others feel valued
  • Organised, trustworthy, and reliable
  • Willing to help on a weekly or fortnightly basis
  • Comfortable handling grocery lists and basic errands
  • Has a full driver’s licence and access to a vehicle
  • Respects privacy and maintains confidentiality
  • Has a kind, patient, and empathetic nature

A Police background check is required for this role.

Time commitment:
  • Once a week OR once a fortnight
