Here's what our volunteers have to say about their experience at Kensington:
"Volunteering at Kensington Gardens has been an amazing and fulfilling experience. It is rewarding working with the residents and hearing their inspiring stories."
- Robert, Kensington Gardens Volunteer
"With respect to helping others, not a shift goes by where I don't reflect on a positive moment during my walk home, no matter how fleeting or seemingly small, where I know that I've made a difference."
- Daniella, Kensington Hospice Volunteer, Resident & Family Care
"I think we’re better as a society when our most vulnerable members are cared for and supported. Kindness and empathy aren’t conceptual ideas or perfunctory responses; they’re emotional muscles that need to be actively nurtured and shared. In the words of Alistair MacLeod: We're all better when we're loved."
- Eva, Kensington Hospice Volunteer, Kitchen
"This has been a tremendously satisfying learning and giving opportunity for me and I feel grateful for having the good fortune to have been chosen and been able to train for the resident care volunteer role. I feel as though the continued experience enriches my daily life outside of the hospice by making me more considerate of the short time we have in our lives."
- Darren, Kensington Hospice Volunteer, Resident & Family Care
