We have over 500 amazing volunteers currently within Somerset NHS Foundation Trust. Volunteers are located in our hospitals include: Musgrove Park in Taunton, and the community hospitals in South Petherton, Frome, Minehead, Crewkerne, Williton, Burnham-On-Sea and Bridgwater. We also have volunteers in Carer and Recovery Partner roles across the county.
Age range 16 – 93
Our volunteers on average give three hours of their time a week.
That works out to approximately 100,000 hours of volunteering in a whole year.
Volunteers’ Week commences Wednesday 1 June until Tuesday 7 June 2022. This is a chance for the Trust to say a huge thank you to all our volunteers and we have celebrated in the past by having a lovely evening reception with entertainment and refreshments.
