Helping hands is a group of local
volunteers who are working to help
those in our village who need
assistance with a variety of small
jobs. We have been running for over
ten years and have helped with 500
– 1500 tasks each year.
Villagers of any age may need help
from time to time with a variety of
tasks. Our volunteers are there to
assist if they can.
Keep up to date with the latest news on our
Facebook page.
How it works:
We have a designated phone number 07726 592739.
Villagers requiring help are invited to call and leave their
name and number and a short description of the help they
would need. Our phone holder will call them back within 24
hours and let them know what we can provide. Alternatively,
you can send an email to the phone holder on
phoneholder@robertsbridgehelpinghands.co.uk . Please
note that Helping Hands does not provide an emergency
service.
Here are some of the things we have helped with; transport,
shopping, collecting prescriptions, gardening, small jobs [like
changing a light bulb] etc, broadband and computer
problems.
Our volunteers have all been checked by the government
Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and will be wearing a
helping hands lanyard so you can ask a stranger to help with
confidence and soon they’ll no longer be a stranger but a
friend.
