    Hi All

    As a volunteer podiatrist and subsequent service organiser for Crisis at Christmas over many years, I would love to get a few more of you on board for this years event.
    We have changed the goal posts this year so that you can volunteer to do just one shift in the week of 23rd to 30th December. As the shift is a whole day shift, Crisis will now offer you a meal whilst on duty.
    Volunteering is a two way street- not only is it rewarding for the guests who get a free foot check and treatment, we get to fulfill valuable CPD - plus the feeling that you can help some of those in less fortunate positions. You will get to meet a great cross section of guests, and although it may take you out of your comfort zone, its a very positive interaction.
    Student podiatrists are very welcome but not allowed to do hands on although previous students rate it as a great learning curve!
    I am in private practice nd it is a great time for me actually getting to work with other pods! if you are newly qualified, fear not! we will not expect you to go ot alone, we are all there t
