We are looking for friendly, caring volunteers to visit older people in our community who may be feeling lonely or isolated.
Reach Out is a project that provides companionship and practical support to older people who are medically vulnerable, home from hospital or at risk of going into hospital.
Just one hour a week can make a real difference — whether it’s sharing a cup of tea, having a chat, short walk in the fresh air or simply spending time together.
Reach Out allows you to contribute to your community by doing something rewarding, and many of our volunteers say how much the volunteering experience has benefitted them.

About Reach Out Hertfordshire
Reach Out is a project that provides companionship and practical support to older people who are medically vulnerable and at risk of hospital admission, or have recently been discharged from hospital. Reach Out can assist people by linking them up with a volunteer in their neighbourhood who can offer support to them in their own home – helping them to adjust to and recover from illness, whilst also reducing social isolation and loneliness.
