I have been volunteering at Acredale for around 8 months now and I really enjoy my time with both the clients and the staff; I started off coming along two days a week at Acredale then moved it up to three days as I liked it so much. We always have a great time, and I enjoy helping out with the activities each day and at lunchtime, serving the clients their meals. As a volunteer I feel very much part of the team, and everyone makes me very welcome. Coming along to volunteer at Acredale is one of the best things I have done, it really is a great place to be
