Description

As a Emergency Response Volunteer you will be someone we can call upon to help if there is an urgent need to support people in and around your local community or to lend a hand to your local NHS in a hospital environment.

There is a range of support that you could provide as a Emergency Response Volunteer such as:
• Helping your local hospital in need of extra volunteers in winter
• Visiting someone who’s recovering from illness
• Joining the team at our hospital shops or cafes when they are short-handed
• Supporting a local lunch club needing to continue to provide lunches to participants.

Our Emergency Response Volunteers are able to help provide their skills and support in a time of need. The above list does not cover all the possible tasks and requests for help will be based on local needs. As long as you are ready and willing please step forward to join us today.

Like all volunteer recruiters we work with, they have signed up to our service standards, agreeing to abide by our policy on partnership working to keep you safe and supported whilst you volunteer.

You’ll never be out of pocket for volunteering through us – with in-London travel expenses to and from your volunteering guaranteed.

In addition, the team here at Students’ Union UCL Volunteering Service is here to support you throughout your volunteering journey – you can get in touch with us at any time.
