Good Neighbours

Could you be a Good Neighbour?

We are looking for Good Neighbours in Derby – people who can help individuals in need of support (generally those over 60) with things like:

  • Food shoppingGood Neighbours Derby Flyer.png
  • Check in and chat (telephone and/or face to face)
  • Transport to medical appointments
  • Collecting prescriptions
  • Practical tasks such as dog walking, taking the bin out and light gardening.

Just one hour a week can make all the difference to someone in your community!

Good Neighbours is a hugely successful programme that was launched during lockdown.

As you can imagine, during lockdown we had a lot of Good Neighbour volunteers (over 2000 in Derby!), but now we’re down to a small team of committed volunteers.

This programme not only gives support to those desperately in need, but it relieves pressures on the NHS and social care system.

Want to give back to your community, make new friends and help our NHS?

If you are interested in becoming a Good Neighbour and are aged 18+, we would love to hear from you! Please call us on 01332 346266, email us or ​complete this form.
