NEXT Monday sees the start of the Women's Royal Voluntary Service's National Thank You Week and I would like to take the opportunity to say 'Thank You' to all WRVS volunteers.
There are more than 2,000 WRVS volunteers working in local projects across Lancashire throughout the year. They provide regular, much-needed services to the more vulnerable members of our communities.
They provide tea bars in magistrates courts, prison and the hospitals, trolley shops, luncheon clubs, a contact centre, clubs for older people and also deliver meals on wheels and books on wheels.
The emergency services volunteers provide assistance at blood donor sessions, community events and can be called out at any time of the day or night in a local emergency.
WRVS volunteers really do deserve a very big 'Thank You.'
