Quote from Brenda Henson and Nicky Silk, Volunteer Managers covering West Sussex: “We are very positive about the impact this youth social action brings, not only by offering additional support and time to patients but it also gives young people increased understanding of the healthcare system, increased community involvement, development of their skills and an increased sense of wellbeing.”
