Make a New Year’s
resolution to do your bit
– however big or small
It’s that time again. January 1st has passed, and with it a long list of things
you vow to stop doing in the hope that the New Year will be the start of a
new you.
Rennie Grove is the local charity that cares for local people – children, adults
and their families – who are dealing with cancer or other life-limiting conditions.
Dedicated nurses deliver this specialist care in people’s own homes throughout
Bucks and Herts, with extensive support services also available through the charity’s
Grove House day hospice.
Each year, more than 1,500 volunteers give up some of their spare time to help
and fundraise to ensure as many local families as possible benefit from this unique
nursing care. Their support equates to £1.5 million a year – but in reality their effort
and input is absolutely priceless.
“Volunteers are integral to the successful running of Rennie Grove and the
sheer scope of their contribution is humbling,” said Rennie Grove Volunteering
Development Advisor, Susan Lewis.
“From helping in one of the Rennie Grove shops, to driving tasks, DIY jobs, admin
work, family support services or organising and taking part in one of many
fundraising events, each volunteer makes a unique and highly-valued contribution.
“The current winter weather brings the threat of snow, or difficult driving conditions,
so we have a pressing need for suitably experienced and equipped volunteer
drivers at the moment as well as a supporting hands co-ordinator plus
eBay listers and packers and complementary therapists” adds Susan.
