There are two types of Alzheimer’s Society IT account routinely provided to volunteers - full accounts and light accounts. They provide different levels of access to Alzheimer’s Society IT systems - the account you are provided with will depend on the volunteer role(s) you perform.
Full account - provides you with a [email protected] email address and a similar level of access to our IT systems as employees.
Light account - provides you with a [email protected] email address and a limited level of access to our IT systems.
No account - even if you don’t have a full or light account you can still access My V-Learning – our e-learning platform for volunteers
If you have a Society IT account (you'll have an email address ending in @alzheimers.org.uk or @volunteers-alzheimers.org.uk) then you should contact our IT support provider Coforge via the Service Now portal or 0333 006 3772.
If you don't have a Society IT account you should contact the Volunteering Support Team ([email protected]) for help.
Your role manager is your primary source of support with your volunteering but the Volunteering Support Team is also there to help you. Contact them with any general questions about volunteering or with any feedback about your volunteering experience you may have.
If your wellbeing has been affected due to your volunteering with us, you might wish to consider accessing the self-help guides or counselling service through our Volunteer Wellbeing Support provider BUPA. They are an independent organisation to Alzheimer’s Society and will treat everything in confidence. If you are interesting in accessing this service, please ask your role manager or the Volunteering Support Team for more information.
