A bit about our branch
Our branch is run entirely by volunteers and we have over 90 volunteers who either are listening volunteers, support volunteers and we also have a team of fundraising volunteers.
We have to raise over £30,000 per year to run our branch and this amount needs to be raised entirely by our fundraising volunteers as we do not receive any government funding.
