Happy Volunteers’ Week!
As ever at this time of year, we welcome the opportunity to say a heartfelt thanks to those who so generously, dutifully spare time to support East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH).
Quite simply, we wouldn’t be able to do what we do without them, and what better time to shout from the rooftops than during this important national awareness week?
It’s firmly etched on the calendar here and only right we publicly recognise the mammoth contribution these people make, from helping in our shops and offering support to families to volunteering in our hospices and at fundraising events.
Selflessly, they give their time to do something incredibly positive and make a difference not only to our charity, and the children and families receiving care and support, but also within their communities.
They’re wonderful people, and I’m always pleased to hear and read of the fulfilment they get from volunteering. Rightly so.
Our legion of volunteers have an impact that washes and swirls throughout the whole organisation, reaching every corner of East Anglia.
They play a game-changing role, and the exceptional care and support we provide is only possible with their help.
Every single person is an important cog in a well-oiled machine, and, to them all, I’d like to say thank you.
Of course, while grabbing the opportunity to celebrate the power of volunteering, it’s also a perfect time to welcome extra pairs of hands.
We can never have too much help, and there are so many roles available, to suit people’s skills and interests. From serving customers and marshalling at bubble rushes to taking on admin duties or maintaining our immaculate hospices, there’s something for everyone.
