FCWS Volunteer and Guest Celebration 06/04/2010
0 Comments
 
WE had a great night on 27th March. Over 80 people came, including several previous winter shelter guests who had come to stay with us. One even bravely came to the front for an interview, whose take away comment was "It works, believe me, what you have here, it works!"

Thanks to Julie (JJ) Johnson, "Laurel", Linda, Hayley and Michelle for catering in style.

Thanks to the people who attended, volunteers and guests. It was also an opportunity to showcase other projects which are running through the year which people can get involved with: CAB volunteering, FoodStop, Rainbow Centre etc.

It was truly wonderful and a tribute to all volunteers and hosting venues involved that our previous winter shelter guests felt comfortable to come along and be with us again and participate in the evening.

Very often there with this sort of work there can be an "us and them" attitude. It was great that people felt included and welcomed.

Thank you all.
