At Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust, we have a dedicated team of volunteers who make a positive difference to patients, families, carers, and staff every day. Our volunteers are an important part of Team Walsall, recognised by their yellow uniforms and often described as the Trust’s “golden thread”, connecting people, communities, and services. They complement the work of paid staff, providing practical support, companionship and reassurance through the small acts of kindness that make a big difference. Volunteering also benefits those who give their time, helping people build confidence, develop skills, make connections, and give back to their local community.
Where we are based
Voluntary Services is on Route 136 at Walsall Manor Hospital.
