To celebrate Student Volunteering Week this February, we’re shining a spotlight on the amazing contribution our student volunteers make to St Margaret’s.
We catch up with Wells Shop Manager Jo on her top tips on how to upcycle your wardrobe!
"Volunteering at the shop makes me feel proud and good about myself as it feels great to give back to the hospice when they’ve done so much for my family."
"If you are looking to volunteer and have some time to spare, pop into your local shop, they’ll find something to fit with what your interests and most importantly something you’ll enjoy!”
"Working at the shop has helped me to regain my confidence. I would really encourage anyone who is thinking of volunteering to take the leap."
During her 30 years of service Evelyn, who lives in Bridgwater, has served thousands of customers and raised thousands of pounds for the hospice so they can continue to care for patients and their families across Somerset, ensuring no one faces a life-limiting illness alone.
