In every corner of Britain, Royal Voluntary Service mobilises volunteers to support those in need, in hospital and in the community. Their volunteers work at scale in the NHS, freeing up NHS staff to dedicate more time to patient care, and within communities to give practical help and support to people as they age. Whether it's helping someone who has recently returned home or taking someone to do a bit of shopping; its the little things in life that really can make all the difference to the lives of so many older people.
The Coronavirus outbreak is an unprecedented event in our lifetime and the Royal Voluntary Service will be mobilising their staff and volunteers to do whatever they can to help. Their dedicated teams will continue to support the community with companionship telephone calls, by delivering essential food and medication, and providing further support to the NHS, their staff and patients.
