Stafford and Cannock hospital volunteers celebrated for tireless support
Thank-you to volunteers
Stafford and Cannock League of Hospital Friends held an afternoon tea-party for their volunteers who operate in County Hospital, Stafford, St George’s Hospital, Stafford and Cannock Hospital.
The celebration was to coincide with National Volunteers Week. Over 40 people attended and were joined by their Chair, Val Jones and the Leagues Trustees.
“I am delighted to be here”, said Val in her welcoming address, “and I am very proud of you, our volunteers. You are truly an asset to our organisation”.
Held at Brocton Golf Club the event was an opportunity for the volunteers to meet each other and learn of the very different roles they play in the different locations.
League Trustee Malcom Hill presented the achievements of the League over the last 12 months explaining that money raised had been used to provide vein finders, garden benches, a coffee machine, video players and TVs to departments throughout the hospitals, all designed to make patients hospital visits more relaxing.
