Caroline Cahit (left) joined our volunteering team about six weeks ago. “It’s wonderful,” says Caroline, a professional organiser. “I think it’s lovely to give something back to the community and volunteering is a great way of meeting people.” Also new this side of Covid is Carol Pearson from Darlingscott, returning to us after about five years. “I used to volunteer before the pandemic,” says Carol. “It was always a very nice atmosphere and I got to know people. I thought I’d come back and help.” Caroline and Carol kindly agreed to pose with a basket of Cotswold Lavender products, new to us in the Community Shop. The naturally-perfumed toiletries, creams and candles come from nearby Snowshill and make perfect gifts
