We aim to create a great community for all our volunteers and those people we help. 

Follow these quick tips to keep yourself and those you are helping, safe and secure.

First phone call

Phone the person you are helping from the link in the app. We add 141 to any calls you make here. This hides your number from those you are calling to keep you safe.

Data protection 

As a volunteer, we ask that you keep all data that you come across such as phone numbers and addresses safe and secure. Please do not share this information with anyone else and delete this information when it's no longer needed.



Equality 

Everyone deserves the same respect whatever background, nationality or ethnicity they are. We know you will do this, but please make sure you treat those you are helping how you would like to be treated.

Emergencies

If you think there’s a serious problem, always call 999 and report everything back to onHand via the app.

If you ever have any questions contact us in the app or please give the team a call on:

0203 488 2912
