Volunteers deliver Serious Fun
RADIO LOLLIPOP is delivered by our Volunteers
We are Volunteers
Since the very start, Radio Lollipop services have been run and delivered by Volunteers. We are totally dependent on their commitment, empathy, creativity and courage to deliver for children in hospitals across the world. Our volunteers engaging at the bedside with the children are simply amazing. Every time they are on duty they create laughter, joy and play.
Our Volunteers also work behind the scenes to raise funds, produce resources and support the work we do on the front line within each hospital.
Radio Lollipop is 100% a Volunteer organisation and if you can help we'd love to hear from you.
YOU Can Make A DIFFERENCE
The Radio Lollipop Volunteer teams make a positive difference in the lives of children. All receive full training and work closely with nurses and hospital staff to create fun, friendship and support for each individual patient.
A stimulating mix of music and participation games is broadcast in children´s wards and rooms. Volunteers work at the bedside, playing games and co-ordinating art projects and contests in which all the sick children have the chance to win prizes.
Being a Volunteer
Each Radio Lollipop station has its own team of Volunteers who run the radio station, involve children in play activities and use the sounds of radio to stimulate the child's imagination. If you are over 18 and would enjoy spending a few hours a week with children on the hospital wards you can become a Radio Lollipop Volunteer.
Through play, a child can find security and stability. Research has shown that a happy, motivated child can respond faster to treatment.
