Thank you for inviting me to yesterday’s Summer Lunch, it was a lovely event. The Volunteer Centre is such a vital organisation to Thornbury - you should all be very proud.
Mary (volunteer)
I recently retired and wanted to fill my time doing something enjoyable and useful. Thornbury Volunteer Centre were very helpful. I now serve tea and chat to visitors while cruising along the Gloucestershire Sharpness canal. Perfect!
