Festive thank you to our volunteers

The Volunteers Christmas party was a fantastic opportunity to say thank you to all those who have generously given their free time and efforts over the year.  They play an essential role on a day to day basis; whether it is working with the animals, fundraising, helping in the office or outside with our maintenance guy, we could not do, what we do, without them!  With centres becoming busier and finances increasingly stretched we need their help more than ever.  


After feasting on a delicious buffet, our Manager (Lee Stewart), thanked those present and those not for all their hard work over the past 12 months and presented awards to a number of long term volunteers.  Some have helped for 5, 10 and even 15 years...now that is dedication.  They have put in so many hours of hard work they really deserve the certificate and medal. 

                           

I then took on the role of quiz master to put our volunteers and staff to the test.  It was a really fun night, seeing staff and volunteers outside the normal working environment.

I can’t thank the volunteers and students enough; I really enjoy working alongside them and getting to know them all.  If you wish to join are extraordinary team of volunteers please contact us: volunteer-stapeley@rspca.org.uk.  I look forward to seeing familiar and new faces next year.
