| Annotation | This ShortCut is the second in a series of five briefing papers that sets out issues for those involved in commissioning, providing and receiving volunteer services such as home care and intermediate care. It draws on research carried out in 2005-06 by the Older People's Programme on services provided and supported by Community Service Volunteers (CSV, also RSVP), British Red Cross (BRC) and Help the Aged (HtA). This briefing outlines the range and characteristics of service users who are supported by volunteers and their impressions of the volunteers helping them. (RH). |
