We're getting ready for Volunteers’ Week (1-7 June)
At Healthwatch Shropshire, we’re looking forward to marking the week by celebrating the contribution of our volunteers and sharing how people can get involved.
Celebrating our volunteers
Our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. They help us listen to people’s experiences of health and social care and make sure those voices are heard by the people who plan and deliver services.
During the week, we’ll be saying thank you to those who have supported us over many years, recognising their ongoing commitment, reliability and kindness.
Why volunteering matters
Volunteers bring a wide range of perspectives and experiences. You don’t need a background in health or social care to get involved - just an interest in listening to others and helping improve local services.
Volunteering with Healthwatch Shropshire can be a great way to:
- meet new people
- build confidence
- develop new skills and gain official qualifications
- play a part in shaping health and social care locally
Every conversation, every piece of feedback, and every hour given helps make a difference.
Get involved
Volunteers’ Week is also a great opportunity to think about getting involved.
If you’ve been considering volunteering, we’d love to hear from you. There are flexible opportunities available to suit different interests, skills and availability.
