Community Hub Volunteer (Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital)

For Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust

If you’re friendly, approachable, and enjoy chatting with others, this is a great opportunity to get involved in something new and meaningful.

Our brand-new Community Hub is a welcoming space where patients, visitors, and staff can connect, access support services, and feel part of a caring community.

As a Community Hub Volunteer, you’ll be the first friendly face people see—helping them find their way, having a chat at our Chatty Café table, and supporting staff who are running sessions.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys meeting new people, making a difference, and being part of a developing project. The hub will grow over time, so we’re looking for volunteers who are happy to be flexible and help us shape this exciting new space.
