Do you enjoy helping others, chatting, listening and want to give something back to your community? If you answered ‘yes’ and have a couple of hours a week to spare, Oakhaven Neighbours could be just for you! Neighbours is a free volunteer-led service available to people with life-limiting illness and their families. Neighbours get involved with a variety of things; from picking up prescriptions, light shopping or gardening, providing companionship, in the home, on trips out to the forest or garden centre for a co ee, sometimes to allow a carer to have some deserved respite. A recent example of the impact our Neighbours have: “I took my lady out in a wheelchair lent by Oakhaven; it was the first time she had been out in 6 years, except for within an ambulance! We went for a stroll around her housing estate; she absolutely loved it and was so happy feeling the breeze on her cheeks!! I left a happy lady, and we look forward to going further afield next time!” A Neighbour explains what it means to him: “It has been a privilege to be an Oakhaven Neighbour, and to be able to support those being cared for and their carers. I have found the support I have been afforded exemplary but moreover, the grace and resilience of those being cared for and their families’ truly humbling.” Full training is given with ongoing support, be part of a friendly local team. If you would like to know more about the scheme and becoming an Oakhaven Neighbour, please contact Sara on 07483 956707, email: neighbours@ oakhavenhospice.co.uk leaving a contact telephone number.
