Good Neighbours
The Good Neighbours project recruits, trains and supports volunteers to undertake a variety of practical tasks commonly associated with those carried out by a 'good neighbour' such as basic DIY, dog walking and shopping. VODA matches Good Neighbours volunteers to local people in the community who could use this kind of support.
