Volunteer Glasgow has been working with Community Link Workers to make it easier for patients to volunteer and connect with the hundreds of public and third sector groups that need their help.
We kicked off Volunteers' Week with a visit to Govanhill Health Centre where Neil, one of the city's Community Link Workers, spoke to Pam Duncan-Glancy MSP about the health and wellbeing benefits of volunteering.
