• Volunteering is such a rewarding experience, it gives
me so much personal satisfaction to be involved in
helping others

• Having used the services I wanted to give something
back. There is something very special here.

volunteer driving in with the many other activities I
do now that I have retired.

Volunteering by Jennie Arnold

Imagine a place where people always feel safe and wanted, where people smile and laugh, share thoughts, welcome each other with open hearts, experience an inner warmth and where age is no barrier, where you can be at ease knowing that privacy stays private, where emotions are shared and understood without question or judgement.

A place that feels more like a relaxed home with a large family, where wellbeing is important, where experiences are shared, real friendships are formed, and laughter is genuine. These, and a feeling of fulfilment and usefulness are just some of the endless reasons I’ve volunteered with my various dogs, firstly Duffle then Amber and now Jaffa (pictured left), for so many years at this special place, and I hope to continue for many more to come.

I count myself so lucky to be able to help each time I walk through the door at Bedford Daycare Hospice.

Volunteers are not paid. It’s not because they are worthless. It’s because they are priceless.
