Volunteer completes 1,000th medical delivery

Dedicated volunteer, Alan Frear, has recently reached an outstanding milestone, completing over 1,000 medication deliveries to support Barnsley Hospital patients and the NHS.

Through the Pick Up and Deliver activity, Alan plays a key part in supporting vulnerable people who need their medication across South and West Yorkshire. This activity sees volunteers deliver medication or equipment to people recently discharged from hospital or in a virtual ward.

 “I’d absolutely recommend volunteering to others, knowing you’ve made a difference is one of the best feelings."

Alan Frear

"Making 1,000 deliveries is a highly impressive accomplishment, and we are incredibly proud and thankful for Alan’s efforts."

Sam Ward OBE, Deputy CEO of Royal Voluntary Service
