That recognised the remarkable individuals who generously give their time, skills and energy to support our services as well as the people with whom we work every day.

Our volunteers play an invaluable role across all areas of our provision.

Their dedication, commitment and willingness to help all make a significant difference to the smooth running of our services, while also creating positive experiences for the people we support.

Whether assisting with activities, offering a helping hand at events, or supporting day-to-day operations, our volunteers are at the heart of what we do.

Throughout the week, we took the opportunity to thank and celebrate the many volunteers who contribute so much to our organisation.

Their efforts often happen behind the scenes, but their impact is felt across every part of our provision.

Darren, one of our dedicated volunteers within our Community Provision, regularly supports our fitness classes, encouraging participation and helping the sessions to run smoothly.

He is also a valued member of the team behind the popular Big Food Truck initiative, where his enthusiasm and commitment help ensure the project continues to benefit local people and communities.

Darren's contribution is a fantastic example of the positive difference volunteers make every day.

His support, alongside that of our many other volunteers, helps us deliver high-quality services and create welcoming, inclusive environments for everyone involved.

Volunteers bring passion, experience and a strong sense of community to our organisation.

Their generosity enables us to achieve more, reach more people and strengthen the services we provide.

We are incredibly grateful for every volunteer who chooses to support us.

You can get involved by volunteering with us across a number of our projects.
