I have volunteered with the club for about 13 years now, I needed to focus on something else in life and heard about the club and came along. Initially I didn't know what to expect and its was a very daunting experience, but after a couple of weeks I had started chatting to more people and felt like I was really helping some of the members to get teas & coffees and just have a chat and play some board games. As time went on, the club was growing I felt like I was part of a great team of not just volunteers, but the members that came really appreciate the time spent with them and having a safe environment to come along and be themselves. I always feel alive after a club night, the members have such a good time and that is what makes me feel good about myself. I have really found somewhere I can go & be myself too.
This comment is from Mike - not only is he a valued Volunteer, but Mike is also the Clubs secretary, helping to run the admin side of the Club. He is also the Club's resident DJ, jack of all trades and master of the Horizon Got Talent Night. The Club is incredibly lucky to have Mike on board and Mike is always on hand with a friendly smile & helping hand.
We are always looking for Volunteers - from all types of backgrounds & who can spare a couple of hours, even if its monthly!
