Take part in the Big Thank You – a Celebration of all the brilliant people who volunteer to help others in their communities across North Staffordshire.
Do you know someone who you would like to say thank you to for helping and supporting you in the COVID pandemic? Someone who has gone the extra mile. Your lifeline.
It could be a community group or team. Maybe the person who brought your prescription? The person who phoned to check how you were?
The Big Thank You event on Friday 4th June is to celebrate and thank the community helpers in North Staffordshire.
Please book your place and invite other people to come.
