Our Voluntary Services Team

Volunteers provide such a valuable service to our patients and visitors.

About us

Why not become a volunteer at one of our hospitals?

Our valuable volunteers give up their time to work at Sherwood Forest Hospitals.  They do it because they want to make a difference and enhance the patient experience.

With over 400 volunteers at the Trust we have a wide range of people volunteering from all ages and backgrounds.  As well as our dedicated volunteers we also work with other organisations such as the League of Friends and the Amazon Breast Care Group.

No two days are the same volunteering.  Can you spare a few hours a week to put something back into your local community?  Are you interested in a career in the NHS and want to know what it's like?
