During an emergency
How can I volunteer?
- check on your friends and neighbours
- if you are part of voluntary group, ask your coordinator to see if they need any help
- think of an organisation that has helped you, and help them!
- listen to the radio and wait to hear how you can help from the emergency services
Remember don’t put yourself at risk. This is about small, neighbourly actions, such as helping with shopping, that can make a tremendous difference at this time. Act sensibly and sensitively with your neighbours.
