🌟 Volunteer Appreciation – Betty! 🌟
We are celebrating an absolutely incredible milestone — 30 YEARS of volunteering! 🎉👏💐
A huge and heartfelt thank you to Betty for three decades of kindness, commitment and community spirit. 💛
Over the years, Betty has been involved in so many different parts of our organisation — from helping with the Call Line 📞, supporting our Lunch Club 🍽️, and being part of our Thursday Night Social Group 🎶, to lending a hand at events and activities throughout the year. 🎉
And if 30 years of volunteering wasn’t impressive enough, Betty was also named Age Scotland's Volunteer of the Year in 2020! 🏆🌟 A truly well-deserved recognition of the incredible contribution she has made to our community.
Thirty years represents countless hours, conversations, laughs, cups of tea, events and memories — and we’re incredibly lucky to have had Betty as such a valued part of our volunteer family. 🥰
Thank you, Betty, for everything you have given over the past 30 years. Your dedication and kindness have made a real difference to so many people. ❤️
Here’s to 30 amazing years and all the memories you have helped us create🥳🥂
