Harpenden Helping Hand
Transport
Outpatients: We are able to provide transport to local hospitals, doctor, dentist or other medical appointments when taking public transport or a taxi would be difficult. We trust this valuable service will only be used by those with a real practical need.
Shopping
We are able to provide a volunteer to assist by shopping for essentials for you, or if you have difficulty in shopping alone to accompany you to the shops.
Befriending
If you are housebound and would enjoy company we are able to provide a volunteer to visit you. If you are caring for someone who is housebound we are able to provide a volunteer to sit with them so that you can go out for an hour or two.
Please remember whenever possible to give us a week’s notice. Where car lifts are concerned, we suggest a modest donation to cover the basic cost of the journey.
