Larkhall & District Volunteer Group

Celebrating Our Volunteers – The Pearls of Our Organisation 🦪.

This Volunteers’ Week, Larkhall & District Volunteer Group are celebrating in style as we mark both our incredible volunteers and our 30th anniversary. In keeping with the traditional pearl theme, we’re recognising our volunteers as the true pearls of our organisation – precious, resilient, and central to everything we do.

Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing themed posts over on our Facebook page, alongside thank-you posters and notes around our building. There will be opportunities for members and staff to leave messages of gratitude for our volunteers to read – a small gesture for those who give so much.

We’re grateful for our volunteers every day, but Volunteers’ Week gives us the chance to go that extra mile – just like they do, time and time again, to support our members with care, kindness, and commitment.

To each and every volunteer: thank you. We’re so lucky to have you.

Spotlight on: Strength & Balance Classes

Exercising as you get older is really imporant. Not only does it make you feel better, sleep better, react better, and remember better, it also improves the following:

cardiovascular health
immune system
brain function
muscle mass

At LDVG we endeavour to help those in our community maintain a lifestyle they enjoy, and through our exercise classes, stay active, healthy and social! Our classes help people maintain their independence whilst making new connections and building support circles. One of our members had this to say:

"I attend multiple groups, including the exercise group on a Fridy. I would say this group has made the biggest impact on me. I attended the exercise group alone initially, but this is where I have created such a great bond with a few other members. There is a group of three ladies who all came together every week and one day they basically took me under their wing and I was instantly part of the group. We go for lunch every Friday after the class, usually to the local garden centre but sometime stray futher afield."

Our hour long classes run on Thursdays (9.30am) and Fridays (13.30am) so why not join today?
