Volunteer at NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde have shared their joy at helping those in hospital.
A volunteer at NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has said that singing with the patients is 'the best part' of her week.For her, singing along with the patients and spending quality time with them is the highlight of her week.Having retired from her career as a primary school teacher, she now makes use of her time for voluntary work, and enjoys chatting and reading with the older patients.
The Glasgow West End native said:"I love the time I spend with the patients here, you meet so many different people that you might not otherwise be introduced to and it’s fascinating and a privilege to hear their stories."It gets them out of their rooms for a couple of hours and gives them an opportunity to socialise."
She urged the public to consider volunteering at NHSGGC's centres owing to the variety of roles available.
