Dementia Support

Often staff don't have the time to spend chatting to patients, and hospital can be a scary and lonely experience for those with Dementia. We're looking for caring individuals who can listen, chat and spend time with our patients. You may be asked to run errands for patients or replenish Dementia Activity boxes on wards; your help can really make a difference.

It is extremely helpful to clinical staff when volunteers provide conversation and reassurance to patients as this frees up clinical staff’s time to provide medical care. It also is really beneficial to the patient to have that friendly face there and a kind person to talk to.

Shift availability: Monday-Sunday 13:00-17:00
