Congratulations to Matt and Megan who are Play Gloucestershire’s ‘Young Volunteers of the Year’ 2011. Each year the Play Rangers vote for the young person they think has made the most outstanding contribution to volunteering throughout the year. This year, the award went to two young people – Matt from Cheltenham and Megan from Shurdington.
At a special award ceremony attended by Play Gloucestershire’s Trustees, 16 young volunteers were thanked for all their tremendous commitment and support over the previous 12 months. Our young volunteers support us at after-school and holiday play sessions as well as at fetes and festivals. They are so dynamic and caring and brilliant role models for younger children attending our play activities. They help us plan and deliver all sorts of activities from den building to campfire cooking to face painting. Without them we would not be such a vibrant, fun and effective charity. Massive thanks to all of them and especially Matt and Megan who have been outstanding this year.
