Summary
Housekeeping volunteers help keep our reception and communal areas clean and tidy.Detailed description
At the hospice we like to create a pleasant and welcoming area for visitors and patients' relatives. As a housekeeping volunteer you’ll help keep our reception, café, toilets and corridors clean and tidy - this role does not include the patients' rooms.
Ideally you'll be able to come in one or more weekday mornings for three or four hours - but we'd be glad of any help you can offer.
All equipment and cleaning materials are provided and you'll be shown exactly what needs doing.
About Tapping House
The Norfolk Hospice is committed to providing outstanding care for people in the local community living with life-shortening illnesses and to their carers, family and friends including bereavement support.
The support provided is tailored to the individual, encompassing their physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs in an understanding, caring and compassionate way, ensuring dignity is maintained throughout.
Care is delivered at the hospice in Hillington, either in the Inpatient Unit, Day Therapy Unit or via one-to-one sessions at the hospice. Care is sometimes provided in people’s own homes.
The current services cost over £2.5 million per year to run; the NHS funds only 32% of this, with the majority coming from the support of local groups, businesses and individuals.
