Volunteer Testimonial

“I retired 2 years ago and since then have been a volunteer 1 day a week at the Carers Centre. I have found the work most enjoyable and rewarding. Varied admin duties, covering many aspects make for varied days and occasional contact with Carers and a very pleasant mix of colleagues means Tuesday is the highlight of my week.” - Ashley Nicholson
