I’m getting support
Requests for support from NHS Volunteer Responders has now closed
NHS Volunteer Responders was set up to support the hundreds of thousands of people who had to self-isolate as a result of COVID-19.
With the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions, we have seen a drop in demand for volunteer support providing shopping delivery, picking up prescriptions, help getting to medical appointments or a friendly listening ear.
Therefore, we have now suspended the following volunteer roles and direct support for clients:
- Community Response
- Community Response Plus
- Check In and Chat
- Check In and Chat Plus
- Patient Transport
NHS Volunteer Responders will continue to support the NHS, and in particular the vaccination service over the summer and into the autumn.
