It was a hive of activity when I arrived at Slough Saba Singh Sports Centre to help set up for the Slough CVS Volunteers Forum.

Arranging tables and chairs, directing people to their allocated table and helping then set up was the order of the day.

50 organisations, ranging from health and wellbeing support, outreach for the homeless, NHS and carers services, fire brigade and local organisations looking for volunteers were in attendance as the Christmas music played.

I helped organise and took part in a 26.2 mile sponsored walkathon (43 laps around the local park). As well as being on the organising committee, I completed 3 separate laps as my contribution. The RBL are raising £14,000 to patch repair the leaky roof as they want the club to survive to celebrate it's 80th Anniversary in a few years. It was a succesfull day with the baton doing 43 laps around the park and online donations topping £1,000.

4 volunteers helped out at todays event.

small number of runners today due to the rain but it still shows dedication from the 9 runners who turned up.

Thank you for all your help and making this event possible

Today's task was to help Slough Outreach to sort out an area of their store room.

We sorted through boxes of clothes and piled them into 'mens, womens and childrens'.

Then went through the hanging items which were moved to the relevant area.

The ebayer's didn't get much more in their pile however vinted were on fire with their stash!

Jen was our valuation expert today. Pricing up a dress makers tool and an atlas.

Great to have Madyha back for her 3rd good deed.

Thank you to everyone that got involved today and especially to Agnija for organising the task.

4 volunteers helped at the local event.

Without your help the event may not be able to go ahead.

If you can spare an hour on Sundays morning please do sign as they run the event on a weekly basis.

Four ladies met in the car park and picked up litter whilst walking a nice circuit of the green space in the wintery sunshine. Lovely to welcome Madyha to the group. Lots of friendly conversation including by the seagulls having a good beak to beak on the field
