Overview

West Kent Housing Association provides an Extra Care Scheme that houses 75 residents who are aged over 55. Independent living, social activity and inclusion are all promoted and encouraged.  This is lively, vibrant scheme where residents want to enjoy life to the full.  The residents living at Montgomery Court in Rochester have different levels of ability and care needs. Montgomery Court is a modern new build development with a stylish interior and good facilities.

Any volunteering ideas will be considered and some ideas for volunteering opportunities are;

  • Computer Training: volunteers who can teach basic computer skills to residents who wish to learn how to use the computer.  This would be available on any days to suit.
  • Restaurant Assistants: volunteers who are able to help bring lunch dishes to the tables and help to clear away afterwards.  This would be available 12-2pm on any days to suit.
  • Activities for adults over 55 years
  • Entertainment for adults over 55 years

Previous experience of working with older people would be preferable.  There is free parking available on site.
