Volunteers participate in a wide range of non-clinical activities across the Trust, complementing the work of healthcare professionals to enhance the experience of our service users.
Volunteer activities aim to:
- Offer social and therapeutic support to service users on a ward or department, e.g. listening and chatting to service users, participating in board games, quizzes, crosswords, gardening etc. or participating in arts or musical activities.
- Promote service user involvement.
Volunteering should be a two way process. It should be mutually beneficial to both the organisation and to the volunteer.
