Aged Care

Take love to an older generation by encouraging them.

Anglicare has over 44 aged care facilities where Take Love Teams can get to know, spend time with and bring new energy and enthusiasm to residents. You might decorate the facility, put on a performance, run a trivia night, do some gardening or even just make new friends and bridge the generational divide. Depending on the location we can take groups of 10-15 students.

Food and Goods Warehouse

Take love to families who need food and clothes.

Every year, tonnes of food and clothing are donated to Anglicare by generous supporters. These donations all end up at our warehouse in Villawood to be sorted before being distributed to those who need them. Go behind the scenes, meet the people who make it all happen and help sort through the donations. We can take teams of 10 students.

Toys ‘n’ Tucker

Take love to children and families at Christmas

Anglicare runs its Toys 'n' Tucker campaign every year. Food and toys are collected from churches, schools and other organisations and packed into hampers to be given to those in need at Christmas. Your team can come in to pack the hampers and pick out toys for the kids to enjoy.

Special projects

Take love to others in need

Do you have an idea of how you could support your local community? Let’s partner up! We’ve had schools fund and build sensory gardens for children in foster care, or help put on performances for residents in aged care. If you’ve got an idea, we’d love to hear it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many people can be in a Take Love Team?

Usually up to 10 people but depends on the location.

Can I choose where my Team volunteers?

You can select the service area that your Team would prefer to volunteer in. Whilst we will do our best to give you your preferred option, there may not be a current need in that particular service so we may suggest another area of the organisation to volunteer in.

How old must you be to volunteer?

You must be 16-years-old or above to volunteer. In some instances, younger students may volunteer under supervision but this only applies to certain areas of Anglicare. Send us an email if you’d like more information.

Do Teams require a supervisor to be with them?

Yes. Teams must be accompanied by a supervising teacher, youth leader or parent over the age of 18.

How long can a Team volunteer for?

You can volunteer for as little as 4 hours up to a week. This is largely dependent on the service you wish to volunteer for.

Can our volunteering be a regular occurrence?

We would love to develop a long lasting relationship with your school or youth group. Please indicate that you would like your volunteering to be regular when you register.

Where does Anglicare operate?

Anglicare operates in the greater Sydney, Illawarra and South Coast areas.

Can I volunteer on the weekend?

Unfortunately, most of our services operate during business hours during the week.
