Two of our volunteers Rod and Ali have been awarded the Later Life Hero award from Age Connects North East Wales.
The award is in recognition for their work with The Rainbow Foundation Lunch Clubs, Meals on Wheels, Befriending and all the support they gave people during the height of the pandemic.
A massive well done to them both for this well deserved recognition.
In 2022 our Rainbow volunteers were awarded with a High Sheriff of Clwyd Community Award in recognition of the vital work they selflessly carried out during the pandemic to support the communities around in and around Penley.
The High Sheriff said: “It was such a pleasure to meet you at the High Sheriff Community Awards to learn more about the amazing volunteering work which you do for the benefit of our community. You make a huge difference to our society and I was honored to have the opportunity to recognise you personally.”
Well done and congratulations to all our Rainbow Meals volunteers and a thank you for all your hard work and support. We really couldn’t do what we do without you.
Volunteering allows you to make connections in your community, as dedicating your time as a volunteer helps you make new friends, expand your network, and boost your social skills.
Volunteering provides many benefits to both our mental and physical health. It counteracts the effects of stress, anger, depression, and anxiety while increasing your self-confidence, providing a sense of purpose and helping you stay physically healthy.
Volunteering is a fun and easy way to explore your interests. It can provide creativity and motivation that can carry over into your personal and professional life.
The Rainbow Foundation is an award-winning charity, most recently being chosen as a GSK Impact Awards winner in 2023.
Volunteering is a wonderful way to give back to the community while making a real difference
