Double sided A4 leaflet from NHS Volunteers Responders, delivered by Royal Voluntary Service "Do you need some help while self-isolating?" delivered to Sammie Read during the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020
Set up at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, NHS Volunteers Responders is an organisation to support anyone who was identified at higher risk of coronavirus or needed help.
Run by the National Health Service, the Royal Voluntary Service and the GoodSAM app, people in England volunteered and were matched with someone who needed their assistance in their local area. Tasks included getting supplies or medications, checking-in and chatting with people, providing transport between NHS services. After two days of the service of being launched on 27 March 2020, 750,000 people volunteered their time.
During the COVID-19 vaccine roll out, NHS Volunteers Responders also help out at vaccination centres as stewards, directing people where to go and maintaining social distancing.
