It starts today, Monday 3rd June:
Volunteers’ Week is a chance to say thank you for the fantastic contribution volunteers make
With a report from Exeter today:
This week (3 – 9 June) is Volunteers’ Week and Westbank Community Health and Care is celebrating the army of volunteers who are the beating heart of the Devon-wide charity and sharing volunteers’ stories to inspire more people to help make a difference.
Volunteers’ Week – now in its 40th year – is a week when charities across the South West celebrate those who give up their time to help others and say thank you to them for the contribution they make. The week also raises awareness about the many benefits of becoming a volunteer and the diverse volunteering roles available.
Pip Morrison, Westbank’s Volunteer Engagement Manager, said: “Volunteers’ Week is such an important time for our charity to acknowledge and celebrate the incredible efforts of our army of dedicated volunteers. They contribute a vast array of skills and experience, generously giving their time to support the individuals, families and communities we work with. We are so grateful for their time and commitment.”
