Introducing ... Di

“I joined the Trust in 2011 as one of the reception team. I was new to the area and thought it would be a good way to meet people. I have watched the Trust grow into an incredible resource for the local community - especially during the COVID times. I am now also a Wellbeing friend and I am the Team Leader for Christmas parcels. This is the big time of year for Christmas Parcels, and we are putting together the food and finalising the list of 140 elderly clients who will receive them. It is lovely to know that each of those 140 people know that someone has thought of them at Christmas.”
