VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION SCHEME

The Trustees of Elizabeth House are truly grateful to all of the volunteers who help with the running of our Day Centre. We value the time and resources that the all volunteers freely give.

We wish to recognise this tremendous contribution through the Recognition Scheme that we have introduced in 2024.

Our intention is to introduce a range of ways that we say thank you.

Our prime gifts each year will be a 1 or 2 night stay at a hotel of your choice. We are delighted to be working with another charity called room to reward ( www.roomtoreward.org ) who are able to provide this to us completely free.

More details about how we will select the winners of the hotel stays can be found by selecting this link (Volunteer Recognition Scheme)
