About the Organisation
St Raphaels Hospice
What you will be doing
Would you like to volunteer to visit a patient in their own home or phone them once a week/fortnight, to have a chat, share an activity or give a little neighbourly help?
Offering a small amount of your time will make a real difference to patients and their families and friends when they need it most.
No specific skills are required - just the ability to get on with people and a desire to help. St Raphael's Hospice will provide training and support.
As a Compassionate Neighbour you will only be asked to provide informal help to someone who lives within Sutton or Merton and won't be required to help with anything medical or related to personal hygiene.
All we ask is that you are aged over 18 and attend our training and support sessions.
