Summary
Do you have an interest in electricals and the skills to help us keep up with the testing of our electrical appliancesDetailed description
Are you handy with electrical appliances?
We’re looking for a volunteer or volunteers who would be willing to travel between our offices to help test all our electrical appliances. This will make sure that we are up to date with our health and safety obligations.
If you have PAT training and a certificate already, that would be great, but we’re very happy to organise this for you.
We’re hoping that someone would be willing to travel between 1 or more of our offices in Tring, St Albans, Watford and Chalfont St Giles.
We would of course pay your travel expenses.
What we will provide to volunteers
💸 Reimbursement of costsAbout Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care
At Rennie Grove Peace, we provide palliative and end of life care support within Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire in four stages: Early Support Living Well, Dying Well and Bereavement Support. Our patient services are available to adults as well as patients transitioning into adult services (16 to 25 years.) Bereavement support is offered for all ages to families of patients and those around them.
We are proud to offer care in the place that best suits the individual’s needs, whether that’s at home, in a care home, in a short stay in our inpatient unit, out in the community, or in our purpose-built Living Well Centre facilities. As a hospice care charity, we have offered this support, free of charge, for over 40 years.
Our staff team of 340+ includes a wide range of patient-facing disciplines plus operational support based in Watford, Tring, St Albans, Chalfont St Giles and Berkhamsted. The Charity is now one of the larger UK hospice charities, reaching a GP population of 797,037 of whom 75% live in Hertfordshire and 25% in Buckinghamshire.
Looking after over 4,500 patients a year, as well as those around them, is a huge privilege, one we simply could not achieve without the incredible support of our 1600 strong volunteer workforce. Our multidisciplinary team helps people to live well and receive support in the place that best suits their needs, when they need it the most. We’re here to help the whole family cope during the most difficult of times, early in diagnosis, during a patient’s illness and, if needed, when those around them are dealing with grief and bereavement.
