This week we are celebrating all of our incredible volunteers who are at the heart of everything we do at Cancer Aid Merthyr Tydfil.
Firstly our drivers who every single day are out on the road, ensuring patients can access treatment in hospitals across South Wales. From morning, until evening these incredible volunteers give up their time, to support other people and show such kindness and compassion every single day.
Our reception team who are the first voice you hear, or the first friendly face you see when you reach out and contact us. Sit alongside them in the drop in centre, or enjoy one of their cuppas while you wait. Friendly, kind, and always make the perfect cuppa.
The shop volunteers who week after week raised funds, sorted stock and made our former shop such a warm, welcoming space in the community.
The coffee morning team who every week are there making endless cups of tea or coffee, or the home bakers, and fundraisers who give up their own time to, make, bake and create to raise funds.
Our trustee team who ensure the charity is working towards its mission always, guiding staff, and supporting the charity behind the scenes.
Our community fundraisers like Maria who works tirelessly promoting the work of the charity and turning Merthyr red with her famous red ribbons.
Our friends in the community who organise fundraising quizzes, shows, events, walks, golf days, teas, bucket collections.... an endless list of brilliant people doing brilliant things.
You are all incredible and we are so grateful for the incredible team of volunteers we have. Whatever part you play in your volunteering role - be proud because you really do make such a difference. Diolch Yn Fawr.
