NHS Golden Jubilee

Volunteers and staff across the organisation said farewell to veteran volunteer Allan Stewart, who retired from his vocation after 10 years with us 👏 Allan (2nd left in pic), 89, was a Sensory Care Volunteer who made visitors and patients’ journey here better by helping those with hearing problems by fixing their hearing aids, replacing batteries and tubing, cleaning and sometimes even rebuilding them. 2022/2023 was a busy year for Allan as he won the Volunteer category at the Our People Awards, was selected to attend the King’s Garden Party with wife Margaret, was part of a Health Improvement Webinar and gave a presentation on our Sensory Care Service with Volunteer Manager, Maureen Franks. Maureen said: “Allan’s volunteer role is skilled and requires a high level of concentration to work with delicate components and he excelled in working alongside patients and improving the patient experience. “During his 10 years Allan came in early on a Thursday morning and on average helped 30 patients each month with their hearing aids and the resources were supplied through the Royal National Institute for Deaf People (RNID), who Allan also volunteered with. “Everyone at Team Jubilee would like to thank Allan for all his dedicated service and we wish him a long and happy retirement.” Thank you for your service Allan, you'll always be part of #TeamJubilee ❤
