The fantastic volunteers here at Trawden Forest Community Centre, Library & Shop enjoyed a wonderful evening last night as part of celebrations. We gave some awards for long service - 1 year, 5 years and 10 years. Some of the award winners are pictured here with our chair, Ann, as is Pendle Youth & Children's Choir who entertained us at the start of the evening whilst guests were arriving. Everyone had a lovely evening, with food, music and lots of laughter. Well deserved indeed!

💚 Volunteer Week Spotlight 💚

Volunteering is even more special when it's something you can share with family. Here are just one of a few pairs of our wonderful mother-and-daughter teams volunteering together in our Community Shop.

By giving a little of their time, they're helping to keep our community shop thriving, supporting local people, and making a real difference to our village.

Thank you both for everything you do – and Happy Volunteer Week to all our amazing volunteers! 🌟

Sylvia says volunteering helps give her a sense of purpose and it's great to be so involved in the community. She loves being part of the volunteer team, meeting people, and helping keep such an important community space thriving.

Thank you Sylvia, for your kindness, commitment and everything you do - we’re so lucky to have you as part of our volunteer team here.

Volunteering is about so much more than giving your time - it’s about friendship, laughter, purpose and being part of something special. 💚

One of the biggest benefits of volunteering is the positive impact it can have on happiness and reducing loneliness, and we think these smiling faces say it all!

Thank you to all our wonderful volunteers this

This Volunteers Week, we’ll be celebrating the amazing people who keep our community assets open & running. Thank you to every volunteer - past and present - for the time, kindness and energy you give to keep our community shop, library & centre open for the benefit of our community.

We have around 150 extraordinary people who work hard throughout the year, in all weathers, at all times of the day - front of house and behind the scenes. We estimate these volunteers give up well over 10,000 hours of their precious time each year. I hope you will agree they are all amazing! Thank you volunteers 💜💚💛🧡🩵🩷
