History of HILT
HILT was an organisation that provided those who wanted to help with volunteering jobs and those who needed help with assistance.
The volunteers that worked through HILT would help people with everyday tasks such as being active and meeting with friends and family. The volunteers would help those who couldn't carry out simple everyday tasks alone.
HILT worked as a supplier of volunteers and paid help, for those who could afford assistance, HILT would be able to find a qualified person who could meet their needs. For those who could not afford help at home, HILT would do their best to provide a volunteer to make their everyday struggles a bit easier.

The group has two segregations, one of which was the training department and the other was called the 'Hilt Toolshed'. The main difference is that those who are working within the Tool Shed department work with people who have complex needs and therefore must go through more training that is required to care for the client.
