Enabling safe and effective volunteering during coronavirus

24 December 2020

As more/most of Hampshire prepares to move into Tier 4, the guidance for volunteering safely has been updated as of 5pm yesterday
The Main Key points are.

  • People who are Clinically Extremely Vulnerable should not volunteer away from home
  • People over 70 can continue to volunteer in and out of the home but must follow the guidance and take precautions
  • Volunteers should avoid crossing Tiers – moving from 3 to 4 for example or vice versa.

Community First are also investigating whether volunteers will be able to access testing and be designated as essential workers. This might apply for example for those driving patients to medical appointments or to access vaccinations
