Community Support - Week 4
Sunny Sunday! 😍👋☀️
Quick round up of this weeks community support efforts...
💙 153 requests for support
💙 143 active and willing volunteers
💙 Working on provisions to begin a meal delivery service for those in need.
💙 We've said it about 458 times now but WE ARE getting the community magazine ready. We promise!
Our admin team is made up of volunteers, Development Trust staff and board members. We've welcomed new volunteers this week and the teamwork on display is insane. Last week we introduced Helen and Cathy and this week it's Donna and Emma's turn! The admin team are those who talk directly to the people who request support and make arrangements to dispatch one of the 143 volunteers to run errands. Everyone is doing so well and learning incredibly quickly. We're a friendly bunch and love a natter so do call in on 01847 867050 and we'll do our best to help.
Donna is no stranger to voluntary roles as she is heavily involved in Thurso parkrun. When it's safe to return, Parkrun will return each Saturday morning and will celebrate it's 100th event! Check out the Facebook page for details. Donna is also a Dounreay employee who have been fantastic in supporting her voluntary efforts.
Emma is passionate about her yoga business True North Yoga and looks forward to returning to teaching classes when she can. For now, she will offer online versions of her classes so make sure to check them out. We could all do with a little yoga at the moment that's for sure!
Lovely coincidence that both these pictures were taken at Thurso beach! 💙
