About
The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport awarded a contract to The King's Fund for project support to Q-Volunteering grantees.
The contract, valued at AUD 13,356, supports the Q-Volunteering programme, which explores expanding volunteer roles in the NHS ambulance sector beyond traditional non-urgent patient transport and community first responder duties.
Emerging findings indicate interest in using volunteers as a peer resource to enhance patients' self-care capabilities and reduce repeat calls and demand for ambulance conveyance, with volunteer involvement tailored to local health and care system contexts and priorities.
