Thank you for signing up to be a NHS Volunteer Responder. We want to make your volunteering experience with us enjoyable, rewarding and safe, and believe it’s important to make sure you’re not out-of-pocket for doing so. This page contains all the essentials for understanding how the process works and how to claim back reasonable expenses, such as mileage, phone calls, bus fares and hand sanitiser, using our NHS Volunteer Responder Expenses System.
NHS Volunteer Responders is the first initiative of its kind in England in peace time and we would like to extend our wholehearted thanks to you for your commitment in supporting the NHS and vulnerable people in this way. You are part of something amazing and we are profoundly grateful.
We believe it’s important to make sure that you are reimbursed for reasonable expenses whilst you undertake your volunteering tasks.
The NHS Volunteer Responders Expenses System provides the opportunity for you to donate your expenses claim through the Donate check box.
Please submit your expenses claims each week and once submitted they will be processed for payment.
Please view the Expenses Policy below to understand exactly what you can claim for, how often and how you will be reimbursed.
Getting to grips with a new system can be daunting. On this page you will find lots of useful information to help you get started and video guides to make it as easy as possible. Please spend some time looking at these, as well as our FAQs, in order to get to know the system better. The NHS Volunteer Responders Expenses System is supported by SAP Concur.
Before getting started, view this video to see the steps you need to take to claim back your expenses. The Concur app can be used on both iPhones and Android devices, as well as a computer. Specific video guides by device are at the bottom of this page.
The expenses system uses Google map functionality to allow you to submit claims for your mileage. You will need to retain the postcodes for each journey.
Receipts and/or ticket images are required to claim back your bus fare or hand sanitiser expenses. The videos below will show you how to access your camera through the expenses system and take a photo of the receipt/ticket.
