We are currently looking for volunteers with a few hours to spare to help deliver Healthwatch Bexley leaflets door to door around Bexley. You can deliver in your own area or if you have a car we can send you to nearby locations. Healthwatch Bexley staff are currently working from home, so we will deliver the leaflets to your home address.
If you can spare 2-3 hours to help then please get in touch. This could be a one-off delivery whenever fits in with you, but if you have more time available then we can provide more leaflets and details of streets in your area.
