We had a great time clearing out her front garden and chatting with her for a while. Can’t believe she’s almost 90 - she’s got a great spirit and was a lovely person to help on this beautiful day! Will hopefully be able to help her clear her back yard next as it’s a lot to tackle!

I joined more than 50 volunteers from the community to help deliver The Clocktower Festival, a fantastic annual family event. We were given official volunteer T-shirts at the start of the day before volunteer coordinator Maia briefed us on our roles.

After putting up directional signs and fun fact boards around the venue, I teamed up with Sebri and Sharmin to run the badge-making booth. It was incredibly rewarding to see so many children excitedly creating their own badges and proudly showing off their artwork. It was a fun and fulfilling day, and great to play a small part in making the festival such a success.
