Today we held our first Volunteer Support Meeting since becoming BFriend and Well-being.

All of our amazing volunteers were presented with one of our branded drinking cups ❤️. Just a token of our appreciation for their hardwork and dedication to the service.

Thank you to Emma Louise at Little big promotions for creating the cups.
