We at Volunteer Centre Hackney are in awe of this incredible outpouring of support and offers of help.
Here is what we are doing in response to the COVID crisis:
1. We are working hard together with Hackney Council, local charities and community groups to identify volunteer roles that are needed across the borough.
2. We are devising a simple registration process to help us match volunteers quickly and safely.
3. We will be linking volunteers with existing services and supporting individuals and organisations around training and safeguarding.
All the work you are doing with your neighbours is fantastic; but please follow safety guidelines to protect both yourselves and vulnerable residents as much as possible. We are here to support you with this. If you are in need of any volunteers for your initiatives, please email us on [email protected]
