We have been supporting elderly and housebound people who live in the heart of the borough of Richmond-upon-Thames for over thirty years. Our volunteers carry out over 3500 tasks a year for a client base of around 125 local residents. Essentially we do what a good neighbour does!
Can we help you with your shopping, getting to the hospital, doctor or a social event? Would you enjoy someone telephoning or popping in for a chat?
Do you have some spare time to provide transport or to befriend a neighbour?
Would you like to support us in other ways? You could help us fundraise by running a marathon, hosting a quiz night or donating while you are shopping online.
Join us in recognising Volunteers’ Week here at Richmond Good Neighbours!
Our volunteers do an amazing job every day of the week, all year round and we are most grateful to them.
From Volunteer Sarah Keating:
“Well, I couldn’t have been luckier to meet two such lovely ladies. Each time I see them I learn more about them. Their lovely sunny attitude and kind nature is such a joy.”
