Michelle walked into Delta Community Trust three years ago and immediately felt at home. “I just loved the atmosphere when I entered,” she says. Since then, she’s become Delta’s volunteer Kitchen Leader, keeping the tea, coffee and food preparation running smoothly while offering a friendly presence for anyone who needs “just a chat.” She’s especially proud of stepping into Team Leader status and becoming a familiar, trusted face for clients.
Volunteering has brought real value into her own life too. “Volunteering makes me feel satisfied, happy and relaxed. I love the routine of it,” she says. Along the way, she’s strengthened her knowledge of food, health and safety, found a sense of purpose, and enjoyed the chance to give back. Her advice to anyone considering it? “Do it!!”
