Volunteers
Hospice EBOP volunteers are a very important part of our service and we would not be able to operate without them. Volunteers serve in many different roles, with or without patient contact. Specially trained and supervised volunteers provide a wide range of supportive services to patients and families, both in the home, and at our Time Out patient respite programme every Thursday. Volunteers are a special part of the Hospice team and provide the helping link between the professional staff and patients, family members and the community.
