Why not just contact the Hospice directly - several friends and family have done this in the past.

The volunteer bureaux based in Peckham can give you details of agencies/charities in ED.

Link Age based in Jarvis Road are always seeking volunteers and so are the Red Cross based in Kings who need people to visit people leaving hospital;

Here is a useful website - you can search volunteering opportunities by type and by distance from your postcode. As Pugwash says, you can contact St Christopher's directly but if that doesn't work out, then try this:

By the way, my experience of arranging for a friend's daughter to volunteer in a St Christopher's shops was that they weren't great at getting back to me, (but I expect that their office may be staffed by volunteers too) but once the arrangement was set up, she had a good time working there for a few weeks, and I hope she was useful to them.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
