I have had many wonderful and rewarding times in my various volunteering roles. This has included making sandwiches for our London Marathon runners, stuffing envelopes in the Fundraising Team’s office, and trekking in the snow in Argentina to raise money. It remains a privilege to be part of The Lullaby Trust, and to have seen it grow and develop over the years.
