Be a Volunt-'ear': Helping Us Hear Your Community

What the role involves

As a Volunt-'ear', you are our local connection. You’ll help us stay visible and reachable by:

  • Spreading the word: Acting as the "eyes and ears" of your neighborhood to promote Healthwatch Northumberland.
  • Keeping things stocked: Delivering feedback leaflets and posters to local GP surgeries, hospitals, dentists, opticians, and care homes.
  • Staying visible: Ensuring that our latest information is on display so people know where to go for help.

Volunteering that fits your life

  • Your Pace, Your Way: This is our most flexible role. You can work at your own speed, fitting it in around your daily walk, school run, or errands.
  • Local or Remote: You can support your own immediate community or even help us with digital promotion from home.
  • Regular or One-off: Give as much or as little time as you wish- there’s no pressure!

No experience? No problem!

We’re just looking for friendly people who care about their local area.

  • Fully Supported: You’ll be part of a friendly team, and we’re always here to help.
  • Training Provided: We’ll show you the ropes and provide all the materials (leaflets, posters, etc) you need.
  • Your Skills Matter: If you have a particular interest or local connection, let us know!
