Volunteers needed for St Vincent de Paul Society home visits
 
Dear St Michael’s Community
 
St Vincent de Paul Bassendean Conference are seeking Associate Members as volunteers for the emergency relief home visitations we do in our Bassendean, Ashfield and Eden Hill area.

Visits occur each Monday, Wednesday and Friday and the number of calls ranges between 1–5 which would take roughly an hour’s duration.
 William Thomas, St Joseph’s Parish Bassendean Conference President  is seeking casual volunteers to assist with the visits as  home visitations have to be made in pairs;  the Bassendean Conference has been in existence since 1939 and currently is short of members, owing to ill health and an ageing membership.

If you are available or know of someone who may be able to volunteer some time on one or any of these days — on a casual basis — could you please make contact with him?

Volunteers must visit in pairs and you will always be accompanied on the home visits. The volume of calls for urgent financial and other assistance is growing, especially in the winter months.   Please contact William if you could spare some time
