Nottinghamshire Healthcare's North Notts Volunteering Project aims to promote social inclusion by extending the range and scope of healthcare service provision for people with mental health problems.

Volunteers, including people who have experienced mental health issues, assist NHS staff by sharing their passions and skills with people who need to engage in meaningful activity and redevelop their social skills, thereby enabling staff to increase the quality of care they can provide. 

North Notts Volunteering Project also supports recovering service users in voluntary placements within their communities, working with the Volunteer Centres to find such placements and then providing ongoing support.

The project currently operates in Ashfield, Mansfield, Newark and Bassetlaw Districts with flexible hours to accommodate volunteers in full-time or part-time employment.
