A much valued and in demand service solely provided by volunteers who have received a programme of instruction on toenail cutting, filing and foot care checks, by qualified NHS Podiatrists. Volunteers are required to help run this not-for-private-profit alternative foot care option for people who cannot manage their own foot care needs. Suitable for volunteers aged 16 and over. No health related experience required. Training and guidance will be provided. May suit someone looking to gain experience for a health & social care related role or medical training interest but suitable to anyone able and keen to assist.
