Some of our volunteers at a recent training session

Volunteers’ Week is an annual event which takes place on 1-7 June. It celebrates the contribution made by millions of volunteers across the UK. It’s run by NCVO in partnership with Volunteer Development Scotland, Volunteer Now (Northern Ireland) and Wales Council for Voluntary Action

We would like to take  this opportunity to say thank you to all the volunteers who help us with so many aspects of our work.  Both our own regular volunteers and volunteers from other organisations who come in to assist with specific projects contribute so much to Caring Together.  From visiting an older person who may be isolated, helping to run groups and at events, teaching older people how to use IT and mobile phones, leading walks, catering, making teas, fundraising, attending meetings to help plan our work the list goes on and on.  You are all amazing and we really don’t know what we would do without you!
