The webinar will explain how you can draw on the experience of successful projects that have been developed, including a published service guide, and to adopt or adapt it to suit your own context.

Helpforce is planning a programme of support for organisations to develop a falls prevention volunteer service within their own organisation. It will cover elements of project management, understanding the demand, developing volunteer roles and recruitment, comms planning and evaluation.  This will begin in January 2023 and you will have the option, after the initial webinar, to join the programme should you wish.

In a recent webinar, Kingston Hospital NHS Foundation Trust shared their experience of a Falls prevention volunteer service. You can watch the recording  here.
