Our Doncaster Dementia services just hit a high note with their new piano project! 🎹 Dementia group members enjoyed an event hosted by our amazing staff and volunteers to celebrate their re-decorated piano, kindly donated by St Leger Homes of Doncaster. This creative project helped them to reflect on their lives, hobbies and interests. To highlight the service and the huge impact it has within the local community, the piano will be displayed in the Doncaster Civic Office building for everyone to enjoy. Well done team. 😍❤

A huge well done to Alan, one of our NHS and Care Volunteer Responders from Holmfirth, who has completed an outstanding 1,000 medication deliveries! 🤯 “There are little highlights every day. It helps those receiving treatment at home and recovering from a hospital stay have access to the medication and prescriptions they need to get back on their feet. “I’d absolutely recommend volunteering to others, knowing you’ve made a difference is one of the best feelings.” We are thrilled to have so many volunteers across the charity, like Alan, who dedicate so much of their time to helping others 😍 Keep up the great work 💪
