Volunteer to help stop COVID-19

This is an exciting opportunity to play your part in history by protecting the community and saving lives.

Register your interest at www.can100.org/volunteer-to-help-stop-covid-19

Community Action Network Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole are working with Volunteer Centre Dorset, to launch a recruitment campaign to find volunteer marshals across Dorset with a particular focus on the Bournemouth area.

They would like people coming for vaccinations to feel welcomed, comfortable and safe, and volunteer marshals will play an important role in this.

As a marshal you will help the NHS provide a seamless, safe and efficient vaccination service for local people. Marshals will help in so many ways, from providing a friendly welcome to vaccination sites, and escorting people to vaccination points.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will be provided, and we’ll cover travel expenses to the site in Bournemouth.

All they ask is a minimum commitment of 24 hours spread over the next three months or so with shifts available seven days a week covering 8am – 8pm. The opportunity is open to young volunteers, aged 16 + – under 18’s will need parental consent.

They'll have team members to support volunteers, so you’ll always have someone on hand to help.

Once you have registered your interest, they’ll be in touch when they have start dates and details of the short mandatory Zoom training / welcome session, after which you’ll be able to book yourself to volunteer when it’s convenient for you.

Any queries or questions, email volunteer@can100.org or call Community Action Network on 01202 099474.
