Happy Volunteers' Week
Volunteers’ Week runs from Monday 2 June to Sunday 8 June. It’s a time for charities, voluntary groups, social organisations, and volunteers themselves to come together, and recognise the incredible impact that volunteering has on communities around the UK.
Our CEO Nick Moberly is using this week to reach out and say a big thank you, from all of us. Here's what he has to say about our brilliant volunteers.
A message to our volunteers
"Volunteers are a vital thread running throughout our organisation. From raising crucial funds to campaigning for change. From providing information, support and connection to sharing lived experience and skills to shape our work. Whether you’re sitting on a national council or providing a listening ear at a group coffee morning, what you do matters. Every minute you give helps us ensure no one faces MS alone.
"We’ll be using this week to celebrate your volunteering in different ways across our channels. Look out for some fantastic volunteer blogs and a special video from our ambassadors and celebrity supporters on social media. We’ll also have content across our other channels, such as our website, emails, and in shops.
"We won’t just be shouting about you externally either. We’ll be inviting staff to come along to an internal session to hear from volunteers from Asian MS and Mutual Support, as well as one of our volunteer Wellbeing Facilitators. They’ll be speaking about the different ways in which they support people to live well with MS."
