Kings Langley Good Neighbours

Are you having difficulty getting to appointments at hospital or the dentist or the local surgery? If you live in Kings Langley we might be able to help.

Watch our documentary film "Village with a Soul" and see the Good Neighbours Scheme in action. Produced in 2015 with a 2019 update.

How much notice do I have to give?

We usually need several days notice to find a driver, but as our drivers are all volunteers they can usually wait while you are being seen.

What does it cost?

Our services are free (apart from the Lunch Cub) but we welcome donations to help with our running costs and with our transport costs. How much you give is up to you. Typically, for return drives, we receive the following:

In the Kings Langley area	£3
Apsley area	£3
Hemel Hempstead and Watford	£10
St Albans	£10
Mount Vernon Hospital	£15
Stoke Mandeville Hospital	£25
Central London Hospitals	£30 plus Congestion and Parking charges

Latest News

Kings Langley Good Neighbours offers lots of services to local people including help with small gardening jobs but we need a couple volunteers to help us fulfil these requests. If you have green gingers and could help out from time to time please contact us.on info@klgna.org

DIY and help with shopping

Some of our volunteers can help with small DIY tasks, including gardening, and will visit people at home, either to provide company, or to relieve a carer, or both. We can also help with shopping trips if these are proving difficult.
Please give us a call if you think we might be able to help, and one of our volunteers will call you to discuss your needs.

Lunch Club

Every Tuesday we run a Lunch Club for any villagers who want an excellent meal in friendly surroundings. There is a small charge for the lunch (£5) but transport to and from the club is free.

Volunteers are always needed

If you are interested in volunteering give us a call on 07790 668672 or complete the contact form. Volunteers are called in rotation when a job comes in. They then decide whether or not they can help on this occasion - it's entirely up to them. If they can help, they then make contact with the client and complete the job. If not, they will be called again next time. Most volunteers are drivers but other services like DIY and gardening are also needed. We also need volunteers for our Lunch Club.
