Blood Bikes

[nobby c]

During the Lockdown I made a decision to get some charity work done again, thought about it, and decided that Blood Bikes could be a good organisation to join, I live in the Greater Manchester area, Bury, so naturally spoke to Manchester Blood Bikes, sadly as they are based on the south east of Manchester I am not in their catchment area, Lancs. Blood Bikes are not recruiting until this covid 19 pandemic is either over or in retreat, but I have a feeling that I will be too far south for them, My question is are there any other organisations that help the NHS or other organisations out that I could look into helping.
Thanks.

The general NHS/social volunteering, which is organised through the Royal Volunteer Service. App based after you are registered. Most of it is shopping or picking up prescriptions for old folks, so you can do it by bike.

There's also Volunteer Riders UK on Facebook.
Not specifically helping NHS, but delivering volunteer-made PPE to organisations that are short.
I've done over a dozen runs - Face Masks to care homes, scrubs to new Nurses at a local hospital, etc.
