The guests of the SBS studio in Melbourne are employees and volunteers from RERC, the Russian Ethnic Representative Council. The organisation helps elderly Russian-speaking people who live in nursing homes or at home. Volunteers have friendly conversations, and employees cook, take customers to the store and procedures, and even garden with them.
