There are so many reasons people volunteer with us – company, community, being part of a team. Debbie’s story shows how much you can get back.
She joined us in 2015 hoping to meet people after moving to Ilmington. A Tuesday shift turned into a committee role with a communications focus, then helping launch the community café. She’s retired now but still comes back to help whenever she can.
“I had no idea how involved I would become, or how much I would get out of the volunteering experience.”
“It’s a great team, and I really believe the shop and café are a wonderful asset and a cohesive force in our beautiful village.”
Ever thought about volunteering? We’d love to hear from you — no experience needed, just a friendly face and a few hours to spare.
