Ziggy Ahmed is a regular volunteer buddy at Calvert Lakes. He first visited in 2004 in his professional role as a carer for young adults with learning disabilities. Since then, he has visited regularly with his clients and volunteers his free time several times a year. The guests and staff here love the energy and enthusiasm Ziggy brings to activity breaks. His skills and experience from being a carer make him the perfect buddy for the unaccompanied adults that visit on our Buddy Breaks, who are mostly independent but require occasional prompts.
Ziggy has devoted his whole life to caring for others, whether that’s the young adults he supports in his day job, the people he helps as a volunteer here and the attendees and players at the local football matches he volunteers at.
