Volunteers needed to help support booster campaign across Milton Keynes

Wednesday, 15 December 2021 11:39

Communities 1st are looking for volunteers across Milton Keynes to help with vaccinations over the next few months.

Communities 1st is a registered charity working towards empowering and connecting the districts of Hertsmere and St. Albans.

They are currently working with a range of voluntary and statutory partners across Hertfordshire, West Essex, Bedford, Luton and Milton Keynes, to help respond to the COVID-19 situation and are looking for new volunteers.

Communities 1st say: "If you are a low-risk, healthy person, you can help. Whether you help medical staff in a vaccination centre, deliver a vulnerable person’s shopping, or just give someone a friendly phone call, you will be making a huge difference."

We are looking for volunteers to help support the booster campaign at sites across Hertfordshire, Bedford, Luton, Milton Keynes and Central Bedfordshire.🧡
