Our fantastic team of volunteers are the backbone of the charity, helping Raise provide important services to our staff and patients. Volunteers are vital – now more so than ever during the coronavirus pandemic. Here are some of the stories of our COVID-19 response volunteers…
“Volunteering has taught me so much about hospitals, humanity and hope; I believe it will be an experience I will carry with me for the rest of my life.”
“I’ve been here for a few years now, an enjoyable, comfortable role; the hospital works smoothly and seemingly at it’s own pace. Then along came Covid…”
“I would definitely recommend volunteering for everyone. Every day is different and definitely a learning experience.”
“I was already very familiar with the wonderful work volunteer services provided to the hospital as I had been taking year 12 students to visit patients for two years.”
“My favourite job is the ward tea trolley. It’s a natural opportunity to connect with patients.”
“Being part of the volunteer team is an honour … and whatever the task, being part of the hospital leaves me with a sense of achievement and satisfaction.”
“I started volunteering because I wanted to see if a career in health and social care was for me.”
