On Saturday, I went along to the 2011 Volunteer Fair at the Harlequin Theatre in Redhill. I opened the event by speaking of the importance of the voluntary sector, particularly in these tough economic times. It was great to see over 50 stalls representing local charities and voluntary organisations from across East Surrey. During the morning, I enjoyed meeting a number of volunteers and chatting to them about the work they do.
Congratulations must go to both Tandridge Voluntary Service Council and Reigate & Banstead Voluntary Service for organising such a successful event. It provided a great opportunity to celebrate the vitally important work that local charities and voluntary organisations do in East Surrey.
