Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand Myalgic EncephalitisChronic Fatigue Syndrome Canterbury Full time

We would love to have new volunteers join our Outreach team and help us to make a significant difference in the quality of life of someone impacted by chronic illness, across Canterbury and the West Coast.

We have clients who cannot get support with housework through the health system, but this support would be life changing for them

Can you help? Tell us what areas would suit you and how often, and we can match you up.


Did you know? People with ME/CFS, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis /Chronic Fatigue Syndrome have a reduced level of functionality that means they cannot complete normal activities of daily living.

An additional burden is that doing too much physically or mentally can trigger Post-Exertional Malaise - a worsening of symptoms that can last for days or more.

Many of our clients struggle with domestic chores such as:

- cleaning *walking dogs *childcare *gardening

Specific tasks to be discussed and agreed between volunteer and client. Volunteers are free to indicate what they are willing to do and what they are not.

We are able to cover travel costs if required, including bus fee or car travel at the IRD Tier 2 rate per km (currently 31 cents per km), as well as waste disposal/the price of your coffee, if appropriate.
