We’re proud and delighted that our volunteer mentors have been awarded the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest national honour for volunteering organisations – the equivalent of an MBE.

“The Award recognises groups whose work has significantly benefited others and sets the national benchmark for excellence in volunteering by such groups… We look for evidence that the volunteer activity is exceptional… [and] how far the group has achieved standards of excellence in its organisation and its volunteers.”

It’s well-deserved recognition of 20 years amazing, imaginative and positive community volunteering by our mentors, working one to one with children and young people every week
