I discovered that Volunteers provide social activities, carer support and chaplaincy support in mental health settings across the trust.

Shine On is a wonderful organisation that supports older people to live independently and stay connected.

It was my pleasure to join the team at @NCLFoodbank who help people experiencing food poverty by providing food parcels and affordable food.

Their brilliant Pathways programme also supports people to live a life free from hunger.
