The Neighbourhood Care Groups: There
are 8 individual voluntary organisations across the borough
which offer neighbourly help to people in need. Neighbourhood
Care Groups offer practical help and support to people in
the community by linking up a volunteer with someone needing
help locally.
Volunteers: Are
needed to help with such diverse requests as transport, shopping,
befriending, gardening, odd jobs, dog walking, sitting for
a carer, escorts on outings and minibus shopping trips.
Can you help?
Volunteering is flexible, fun and very worthwhile. Helpers
must be reliable, but do not have to make a regular
commitment - occasional help is appreciated. It is an excellent
way of getting to know people in the area. Perhaps you could
give a little time to help?

Catchment Area: The boundaries for each of the groups
have to be cleary defined in a borough the size of Richmond
upon Thames. Follow this link to find out how the catchment
areas are set up or go straight to our map to locate
your nearest group.
