Volunteer at hospital

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is hosting a volunteer recruitment day to showcase volunteering at Pilgrim Hospital, Boston.

It takes place on Monday (October 28) from 10am to 2pm.
The Voluntary Services Team will be on hand to assist anyone over the age of 18 to apply to join the existing volunteers at the Pilgrim Hospital in Boston.
A ULTH spokesman said: “Along with some of our current volunteers, they will be there to let prospective volunteers know all about the varied roles we have available, and how straightforward it is to become a volunteer with ULTH.
“We are looking for caring, compassionate people who have at least four hours a week free, for a minimum of six months, and want to make a positive impact to patient experience and care.”
Andy Tysoe, voluntary service manager said: “Our long term goal is to have a volunteer every day on every ward.
“To achieve this, we need to recruit many more volunteers at all of our sites.
“My team of staff and volunteers are looking forward to meeting people who would like to come and join our current team of committed, caring local volunteers and play an important part in continuing to improve the experience of our patients and visitors in the future.”
The volunteer recruitment day will focus on attaining more ward buddy and theatre volunteers who provide non-clinical support to staff, patients and their families, as well as both meet and greet and emergency department volunteers to speak to those coming onto the wards and their families.
Other roles range from patient facing to gardening roles.
The volunteer recruitment day is at the outpatients entrance at Pilgrim Hospital.
