Community Responders – Age UK Northamptonshire

Our service provides support from volunteers to people over 60 years of age. We work closely with the Intermediate Care team and Remote monitoring hub who provide urgent care for acutely unwell patients to avoid admittance to hospital.
Our volunteers support with welfare checks, helping people up following a fall, collecting emergency prescriptions, providing reassurance while waiting for family, friends, primary and secondary care services to arrive, doing small amounts of shopping and topping up gas and electricity meters to name just a few of the ways we can support our community.
The service currently runs Monday to Friday, 9am to 3.15pm.
The service is looking for more volunteers. More information can be found attached
