Meaningful in-home support from caring young people

Lively is a not-for-profit that employs big-hearted young people to offer flexible support for older people in their local community.

Through these relationships, we not only deliver meaningful, personalised support for older people, but also work towards a world where all young and older people feel valued, connected and supported.

Mick

"The thing about being old, is when a young person comes into your path, or your stratosphere, they make you feel younger. That’s just a fact. Just by their very youthfulness.”

Lisa

“Things that were once a closed door to me before are now a window of hope. The change has been very significant.”

Maxwell

“This has been a journey of rediscovering and reinventing! It's been magic… I've been reflecting about how different I am, I've come out of my shell. I'm blossoming and enjoying the appointments, I regret that I haven't done it sooner.”

Mandy

I love chatting to people from all different walks of life and getting to support people in any way possible. I love to travel and when I visit my members I’m able to hear all their stories from travelling throughout their lives. I am currently studying nursing and Lively is helping me develop my skills to pursue a career in nursing.

Minna

My role at Lively allows me to make meaningful connections with the older generation and engage with my community. I’m often offered invaluable chances to up-skill, and I really feel that I’m a valued member of the team. I love my work and hope to keep learning and growing with Lively for a long time to come.

Jeremiah

I love hearing different people’s stories and experiences. I’ve always known my career would involve helping people, having spent some previous time volunteering in aged care. Working with Lively is equal parts rewarding and exciting; I’m always up for a session.
