About Helpforce
Helpforce has existed since 2017, and in that time we’ve managed to shift understanding about the potential of volunteers to help patients and staff in hospital and in the community. And we continue to work with organisations at national, regional and community level to optimise the role of volunteering.
We do this by:
- Partnering with organisations to develop and grow impactful volunteering services
- Capturing and sharing insights about volunteering – building understanding of how to set up excellent volunteering services and making the case for growing those services
- Persuading leaders to invest in volunteering
Helpforce is a great organisation to work for if:
- you care about our NHS and health and social care organisations and how effective they are in providing essential care and treatment
- you want to play a part in creating more evidence and awareness about how important volunteers are in health and care
- you are an adaptable person and passionate about making a difference
- you want to work for an organisation that empowers and supports its team to fulfil their responsibilities, encouraging flexibility and initiative
Our values
We will harness the power of community by:
- Connecting people
- Creating and learning together
- Being inclusive
We will champion volunteer innovation by:
- Driving improvement through evidence
- Pioneering new services
- Being curious about new ways of working
We will have integrity in all we do by:
- Delivering on our promises
- Being open and transparent
- Being a trusted partner
“Helpforce is a place where I feel truly connected to the people I work with. All ideas are welcomed and discussed by our senior leadership team who are actively guided by our input. I also get to meet and speak with healthcare professionals and volunteer service managers from across the UK which helps us to focus our work and support the NHS and other health and care organisations.”
