Peter, Beacon Hill

“I have been a volunteer for over 20 years in different organisations which has given me a purpose apart from holding down a regular job. There has always been a great need for people in our community to know that there are so many people wo care and are compassionate and committed to supporting those who need our support. I have been with MWP now for 10 years and I am so proud to be part of their Caring of those in need in our Community ‘In Giving You Receive’ has always been my motto.”

Sammie, Forestville

“I began volunteering with MWP Care to give something back to society. I have found that I have received far more than I have given. I have been given a new lease of life, in being able to make a difference in other people’s lives. I have developed firm friendships and I continue to meet new people, which is interesting and rewarding. The MWP Care staff are friendly, approachable and extremely supportive. What I love about volunteering, is getting out and having fun, in the company of fun and appreciative clients!”

“Thank you everyone at MWP for putting on these outings and events. Even though I don’t go on many, the few I do attend, keep me sane. They are so wonderful and I always look forward to them. Also, whenever I call MWP with my list of questions, everyone is so nice and kind and very obliging. You really take your time to explain everything. You put me at ease”

Annette, Client

I would like to extend my sincere thank you for a wonderful evening. It was so gratifying for me to be able to spend time with the incredible MWP Community Care Team, which I feel very much a part of.
It was a celebration, not only of your volunteers, but you, the team, who lead us and champion us, with one common goal, to improve the lives of others in our community

Zeta, Volunteer

“I understands the daily difficulties MWP is faced with when it comes to pleasing individuals. I so impressed with everyone I’ve dealt with at MWP, whether it be in person or over the phone. The complexity of older people’s needs can often draw out the more unpleasant side of individuals. We are all different and the calm composure, patience, and tolerance MWP demonstrate with each individual when in large groups is impressive. Phone calls by Belinda are always a highlight. You feel her smile down the phone. It’s so uplifting.”
