Question: What should I know if someone is volunteering to help me?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Coronavirus: How to help safely
section_headers: Stay safe if a volunteer is helping you
section_content: Read the guidance on staying at
home.
If a volunteer is helping you while you stay at home:

do not give them your credit or debit card numbers or other financial information
ask for ID if someone you do not know calls at your home
only share your phone number or address if you need to
only give your information on a need-to-know basis
do not let them pressure you into giving information

Remember that volunteers should not enter your home.
If you have serious concerns about the behaviour of someone who is helping
you, report this to the police.

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Coronavirus: How to help safely
section_headers: Stay safe as a volunteer
section_content: You can leave the house to help someone, for example to take them food and
medicine.
If you are doing this, you must:

stay outside their home if you do not live with them, especially if they are at a higher risk from coronavirus or have symptoms
limit the time you spend outside your home for example by picking up their food or medicine with yours
stay 2 metres (6 ft) away if you do not live with them
not share a car with them
regularly wash your hands with soapy water for at least 20 seconds

If you do not follow this advice, you could put yourself at risk of infection,
or risk spreading it to others.
If you or someone in your household starts to show symptoms, or if you are at
high risk of severe symptoms yourself, then you must stay at home. If you
still want to help, you can donate to the National Emergency
Trust.
If you’re worried about someone’s health
Contact the NHS:

Online: NHS 111 online Coronavirus service (for help and advice)
Phone: 111 (if symptoms get worse)
Phone: 999 (if someone’s life is at risk)

If you are worried about someone’s mental health, tell them to get help and
support from Every Mind Matters.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
The info here is good, but more for someone that is offering to volunteer to help someone.  Still, the info here is probably good enough to give help for someone looking for this advice.
This is answer is aimed at people who are volunteering, not people who are getting the volunteer help.

Answer passage (source: UK):

section_content: You can volunteer if:

you’re well
nobody in your household has coronavirus symptoms, for example a cough or high temperature
you’re under 70
you’re not pregnant
you do not have any long-term health conditions that make you vulnerable to coronavirus

You can:

shop for food and medicine (online, or in person)

To apply, volunteer through your local council. Find your council’s
website and search for information about
volunteering during coronavirus.
You can also apply to volunteer through a charity or
organisation.
Volunteer to help the NHS
To volunteer if you’re a doctor or nurse, visit NHS
England or
contact your local hospital
trust.
If you want to give blood, read the guidance about donating blood during the
coronavirus pandemic.
You cannot apply to help the NHS through its volunteer responder scheme at the
moment. It’s temporarily closed.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
The information is decent, but it is for someone who is volunteering, not for someone getting a volunteer.  Still, there is a lot of information and the info here would probably overlap.
This is about people wanting to volunteer, not people who are having volunteers help them.
