THANK YOU TO ALL OUR CURRENT VOLUNTEERS
We are so grateful to all our volunteers. There are currently fifteen regular volunteers, who help out in the kitchen, laundry and with maintenance, as well as several others who come for a short time or occasionally. Altogether we have calculated that they work 157 volunteer hours per week, which if paid at national living wage rates would make a contribution of £75,000 annually to Caring Hands. You are worth your weight in gold to us!
