The first week of June is Volunteer’s Week and I would like to take this opportunity to thank our amazing volunteers for the impact they have on the lives of vulnerable children in the south west and across the UK.
We have over 6,449 volunteers in the south west working in our shops, working directly with children in our projects, holding fundraising events and even helping to run our office.
Without them, we would not be able to reach out to many thousands of disadvantaged children in the UK.
We’re always looking for new volunteers, so if you’d like to help us improve the lives of millions of children, then go to www.playyourpart. co.uk or call 0300 303 7000.
Matthew Reed, Chief Executive, The Children’s Society.
