Volunteers get knowledge boost

"Volunteers for Community Care will now be able to do their jobs more efficiently, thanks to a two-day training course.

More than 25 of Community Care for Central Hastings' 40 volunteers took advantage of a training course with athletic therapist Jenna Coe from Centre Hastings Sport and Physio, July 4 and 5.

Coe worked with volunteers on strategies to help seniors in and out of vehicles. Volunteers make more than 8,000 trips a year taking seniors with ailments and physical disabilities to medical appointments, shopping and to social outings."
