What’s more, they have continued to offer connection for their communities, tackling mental health, loneliness and poverty; and offering hope, meaning and skills through volunteering placements and training opportunities.\nThe difference our members make is almost immeasurable, but we will be sharing and celebrating the scope and depth of their work by publishing our 2024 Annual Impact Report on the day.
