Community Transport support residents across North Herts & Stevenage to get to hospital appointments and social clubs. The service uses a dedicated team of volunteers who all use their own cars in their free time to transport local people to their required destination. The Volunteer Drivers are paid a mileage rate to cover the distance they travel which is currently paid at 45p per mile.
Jon and the team are always looking for more drivers across Stevenage, Baldock, Letchworth and Hitchin.

Reach Out provides companionship and practical support to older people who are medically vulnerable and at risk of hospital admission, or have recently been discharged from hospital.
Volunteering is easy from telephone befriending, in person cuppa and a chat, or accompanying their service users to get out and about.

Reach Out operates across Hertfordshire so please do reach out if you would like to support someone in your local area - check out the last slide to see their current volunteer opportunities, or come and say hi at the Hertfordshire Volunteer Fair happening tomorrow, Friday 5th June in Hitchin.

While we are finalising the last bits ready for the Hertfordshire Volunteer Fair tomorrow, we’re spending a few moments reminiscing on our event last year.

It was a great day full of conversation, the weather was kind to us (🌞) and we saw many inquisitive faces turn into inspired ones.

This year we have even more in store - more organisations, more celebrating and some more newness… I’ve heard there may even be cake… 🎂

✨ Volunteers’ Week is a chance to celebrate the incredible people who give their time to support others and strengthen our communities.

As Mike puts it, if you’re working in a job (or giving your time to something) that doesn’t excite you or spark passion, then what’s the point?

Feeling a bit of a crossroad’s, Mike decided to start volunteering at North Herts young people’s mental health charity, GRIT.
