Description:
Laughter exercises have many benefits for our aged care residents, such as improving mental alertness and producing endorphins which are our bodys natural pain killers.While laughter doesnt solve problems, it does dissolve them.
When we share laughter with others, there is a deep sense of connection and belonging.
Were looking for volunteers who are interested in running laughter yoga at our aged care homes as part of our wellbeing program.
You'll enjoy interacting with the elderly, and you'll thrive seeing our residents enjoying the experience.
We will be holding a training session by a Laughter Yoga specialist on **Thursday 29 May**, therefore it's essential you're available to attend this session which will set you up for success.
Caring is at the heart of everything we do. mecwacare is proudly a not-for-profit, non-denominational charitable organisation that has been supporting the elderly and people with a disability in the Victorian community since 1959.
If you would like to be involved in this unique opportunity and support your local community, please apply online. For questions, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator on 0408 657 *** / 0429 585 ***
