## Description

The NHS Volunteer Responder Service was created as part of the Emergency Response to Covid\. NHS Volunteer Responders brings a new and additional cohort to the NHS family and provides an ongoing opportunity for people to continue to support the NHS by retaining the national micro-volunteering and crisis/emergency response service\. The management supplier may therefore be responsible for deployment of volunteers into some volunteering roles, agreed nationally, but will also create a quality assurance process to approve other organisations to be able to access and deploy volunteers through the NHS Volunteer Responders brand either locally or nationally, providing a support and advisory function as needed
