Volunteering is defined as activities in which time is given freely to benefit another individual, group, or organisation. Furthermore, volunteering is part of a cluster of helping behaviours that entail more commitment than spontaneous help or assistance, but differ from informal care provided, for example, within the family or among friends. Volunteer work is often considered to be beneficial to the volunteers and it has been shown that it enhances their well-being and also that people with greater well-being invest more time in volunteer service.

Volunteering is defined as activities in which time is given freely to benefit another individual, group, or organisation. Furthermore, volunteering is part of a cluster of helping behaviours that entail more commitment than spontaneous help or assistance, but differ from informal care provided, for example, within the family or among friends. Volunteer work is often considered to be beneficial to the volunteers and it has been shown that it enhances their well-being and also that people with greater well-being invest more time in volunteer service.

This exciting new specialist volunteer role will support patients to participate in meaningful and therapeutic activities during their stay in hospital. Research suggests that having access to stimulating activities can help enhance wellbeing and therefore can assist in the healing process. Person centred and age appropriate, games and crafts are just some of the activities that can assist.  This role will improve the experience of our patients and families, allowing the opportunity for people to express themselves in a creative manner thus reducing isolation, improving motivation and sense of wellbeing.
