Tamar, creating our world of difference

Our volunteers make a world of difference in our community, sharing their precious time and skills to help us deliver much-needed services to our clients.

Tamar, one of our volunteers, not only assists in the hydrotherapy pool, but as an artist, has helped us celebrate the world of difference made by her and her volunteer colleagues by creating an engaging artwork that celebrates the work of volunteers across our community.

The vibrant and colourful work was developed over a period of four weeks in which Tamar produced a medley of characters to portray the many ways in which volunteers help within a community. Featuring an array of folks going about their daily lives, Tamar’s work stimulates the senses and makes you smile as you realise, we are all different but all have so much to offer, and so much difference to make.

The artwork is now on proud display in our reception at 2A Gardeners Rd, East Bentleigh.

Throughout National Volunteer Week, Connect Health & Community will use Tamar’s bright creation to celebrate volunteering in our community.

When not volunteering with Connect Health & Community, Tamar designs clothing for her brand @pawpawdesigns and is currently writing a children’s book. To see more of her work, follow her on Instagram @pawpawdesigns, on Facebook or at www.pawpawdesigns.com
