Our wonderful volunteers are available to help you at the RHCYP, working for both the NHS Lothian Voluntary Service and also Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity. Working side by side with staff, our friendly and helpful volunteers can assist with directions, questions and help around the building. All of our volunteers are PVG screened and must display their ID badge. Volunteers do not have access control to the wards or departments but can point you towards help from the staff team at the RHCYP. Look out for them in their red or purple t-shirts.
