Royal Voluntary
Service mobilises volunteers in every corner of Britain to support people in
need and the NHS.
Their volunteers
work with healthcare teams and in communities providing practical help and
emotional support when people are struggling to cope.
Since the
beginning of the pandemic they have focussed on providing a telephone
befriending service for the vulnerable and isolated over 50s. This takes the
form of a weekly check in and chat with one of their volunteers, and in some
cases was the only social contact their clients had. As restrictions have
eased, they have since been able to expand to accompanied walks, and recently
home visits too.
VOLUNTEERS ARE
NEEDED !!!
