Peer Support Volunteer

Peer Support Volunteers will contribute to helping people to feel confident in their own health and care.

Peer Support happens when people with similar long-term conditions, or health experiences, come together to support each other - either on a one-to-one or group basis. It is enabled through relationships that build mutual acceptance and understanding. Peer Workers share their lived experience and provide one-to-one support and groups in the community across County Durham.
