I am in a different life when I am volunteering.  It provides great stress relief from my carer role.

Volunteering has really helped me as I have dementia and it gets me out of the house. It has a positive impact on me. I feel happy and I like that I am giving back to the local community. I really like the jobs we do and the people I work with too.

I have learned so many different but relevant skills including interacting with people. I have been mentored and supported throughout my volunteering experience.

Volunteering has given me confidence in myself. I enjoy the company and helping people out.

Normally I shop on my own. It’s nice to have company. It’s also interesting to see what different people buy.

It’s a great day out which I wouldn’t do otherwise.

This is a great group because of the camaraderie.

It’s the greatest thing that has ever happened to me.

The gardeners have just been and I could weep with joy.

I am so grateful. I wouldn’t see anyone if I couldn’t do this.

Thank you. I am so glad you guys are there, It’s wonderful

The gardeners do a wonderful job. They are amazing beautiful people. Sincere thanks to the team.
