Our dedicated volunteers offer practical and emotional support to our patients
They also provide a helping hand for our staff and a friendly face for our visitors.
They can support the hospital in several ways from welcoming and directing visitors, giving out refreshments on the wards or chatting to patients.
Our recruitment process can take from one to three months. It will depend on how quickly you complete necessary checks and stages.
And we would like it to be a valuable experience for you too
You’ll make new friends, meet and work with new people from all walks of life, learn new skills and gain new experience.
Our volunteers tell us they feel more confident and happy by giving back and helping others.
