#VolunteersWeek - Hazel

Volunteers - A spotlight on the people who make a difference.

All sorts of people, for all sorts of reasons, volunteer.

As part of Volunteers Week we want to celebrate and show our appreciation for  some of the amazing people who support and contribute to Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust. We hope they inspire and motivate you to make the most of your neighbourhood. 

Today the spotlight is on Hazel, out Wellbeing Arts volunteer.

I’m retired and worked in Television for 22yrs so have a love of the Theater, the Arts, Crafting, and of course my garden.

After retiring I wanted to get more involved with my local community so have volunteered with a number of

organizations. Fareshare, The Old Library, and now at The Hub for Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust..

I've always been involved with community lead groups from helping setting up our local Neighborhood Watch group for our street, to holding regular meetings with Fairfield school when it was first built as the residents had concerns about the size and height of it.

I always feel that achieving things with a team for your community is very rewarding and I think we should always try and give something back. 

Nothing better than seeing people appreciate what you are doing. What I have learned is teamwork is very important, along with a clear plan of what the group wants and how to achieve.

Thank you Hazel! From the team at Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust.
