Volunteers join us to celebrate our birthday!

Last week, we invited some of our incredible volunteers to join us to celebrate our 65th birthday and to thank them for all the invaluable work they do. We held events in Fishersgate, Bognor Regis, Horsham and Haywards Heath.

We are lucky enough to have over 300 active volunteers, who do a range of vital work to support some of the most vulnerable older people in the community. Roles are matched to people based on their skills and experience and vary dramatically, from gardening at our centres, to befriending or supporting older people at home after a hospital stay.

As well as birthday cake and celebrations, the events were an opportunity to thank the volunteers for all their hard work throughout the pandemic and beyond. Volunteer Manager, Richard Harris, was on hand to explain the impact our volunteers have – we simply couldn’t do without them!

Anyone interested in joining the fantastic team should contact Volunteer Manager, Richard Harris, ideally by email on richard.harris@ageukwsbh.org.uk or call 07841 662564.
