Our telephone line is open: Monday to Thursday from 09:00 to 17:00 and Friday 09:00 to 16:30.

We can offer pre-booked services outside of these hours, including at weekends. We require 48 hours’ notice but, depending on our volunteers’ availability, we will try to help out when shorter notice is given. Health-related visits are always given priority, as volunteer availability allows.
