By accelerating the growth & impact of volunteering, we will all benefit
Volunteers improve the lives of NHS staff, patients, and our communities. Together we can bring innovative thinking and trusted experience to scale and spread volunteer innovations in health and care.


We work with hospitals and healthcare workers to accelerate the growth and impact of volunteering in health
We’re building a community for volunteer leaders, creating frameworks, and measuring the impact of volunteering in our hospitals.
We’re scaling capacity for volunteering in the NHS
Working with health and care partners, and NHS Trusts, we measure the benefits of volunteering for all involved – helping NHS Trusts expand the range and quality of volunteer roles that are available.
We’re making sure that help begins before you set foot in the hospital
In collaboration with volunteers and volunteer leaders we have co-created new national training standards. In partnership with NHS leaders we are integrating volunteering across the patient pathway.
