Henderson Court Volunteer:
"I love giving back and I enjoy helping the members; I have recently started to call the Bingo numbers on a Tuesday. Coming to the centre has given me so much confidence and has also given me a purpose. I really look forward coming here every week, it keeps me active and has stopped me looking inwards."
Great Croft Volunteer:
Over the past 5 years I have been lucky enough to spend a couple of hours weekly running a singing group with the members of Age UK Camden's Great Croft Resource Centre. Each session proves a powerful reminder of the joy that can be created and shared with a little organisation between friends.
