The Application

The big interview

Volunteer: do good, feel good!

They come in every age, shape and size, and from many different backgrounds. Some aim to develop their skills, while some come to share their talents. Some seek friendship, while others simply want to give back to their community. What unites all of the 650 volunteers working across NHS Humber Health Partnership’s five different hospitals is the desire to help others. Thank you to those who help keep our hospitals in East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire ticking over.

Volunteers are not just a support to patients and visitors, however, they’re a support to hospital staff too, with many ward staff describing their volunteers as ‘priceless’. But if you think you know volunteering, think again, as those seen giving their time around our hospital wards and departments may just surprise you.

There is an army of young volunteers, known as Young Health Champions, working in local hospitals, many of whom are giving their time to learn essential skills on route to a healthcare career?

Some of those walking the wards even come in a four-legged variety, with therapy dogs regularly visiting staff and patients to help people relax and act as a conversation-starter.

“Volunteers donate thousands of hours each year to help support our patients, visitors and hospital staff. They each bring different skills and life experience, but the real gift they all bring to the team is the gift of time; the fact that our volunteers are able to chat with patients while nursing staff are busy, or help direct a lost visitor while reception staff are helping others. These small things all add up to help deliver a much better experience for people across our hospitals. We’re proud to have so many volunteers on our team, and while we’re grateful for their support year-round, there’s no better time than the present, to say a public thank you on behalf of the whole Group to those who give their time to others.”
