A great big thank you!

Did you know that 1 – 7 June is Volunteers’ week 2010? This week is dedicated to inspiring and celebrating the wonderful work of volunteers. And we’ve got a lot of volunteers to thank! Girlguiding UK’s 80,000 volunteers give an incredible 10 million hours of time to guiding every year.

So, if you’re a volunteer, take some time to pat yourself on the back. And don’t forget to thank and encourage your unit leaders and helpers for their dedication too. You could show your appreciation by sending thank you cards. It’s really easy to say thank you – you could create a personalised Star volunteer certificate, send a thank you card, or just say it, of course.
