Supporting care and comfort at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital
Ben Wilson volunteers weekly at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, offering support to staff and patients through guidance, assistance, and a comforting presence in the emergency department.
"I wanted to try something entirely different, and with work slowing down during the lockdown, it felt like the right time to get involved. It’s been incredibly rewarding.”
