Volunteer with Pharmacist Support

Pharmacist Support relies on volunteers to deliver its services to pharmacists in need all over Great Britain. All of our volunteers are pharmacists or retired pharmacists and because of this shared professional background are uniquely able to understand the specific pressures affecting pharmacists and their families. Volunteering provides you with the opportunity to help others.

Home Visiting

Home Visitors visit beneficiaries in their home all over Great Britain. The role of the Home Visitor is essential in ensuring that all applications for assistance are provided with a personal response and that the full needs of the applicant are assessed. They support beneficiaries by listening to their concerns and by identifying any needs and further assistance they may require.

Current Vacancies

We are currently looking to recruit a small number of Home Visitor volunteers in Scotland, central London and the South West of England. Volunteers must be able to commit to a minimum of 2 visits per year and be available to attend a yearly training session. Our next training day will be held on 11^th March in Manchester.
