HealthUnlocked Online Community Volunteer Admin role description

About Our HealthUnlocked online community

Health Unlocked is an FMA UK online Community provided by HealthUnlocked, where people can get support and information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Volunteer Admins support provides a welcoming environment for people affected by fibromyalgia. These Admins enable us to provide a better, more responsive service.
