• Monitor the main communications inbox responding to all requests in a timely manner and allocating incoming work across the team.
• Ensure all materials around the hospice sites and our 24 shops are up-to-date and on brand this includes replenishing patient information materials, staff noticeboards, public-facing noticeboards and TV screens.
