Nightingale
The retired secretary and shop assistant has volunteered at the independent South London care home for nearly 30 years
Why Nightingale?
I was sitting next to the chairman of the Nightingale Friendship Club at Wimbledon and District Reform Synagogue and was persuaded to come and help. It was a case of "Once involved, forever hooked!"
What does your volunteering involve?
I visit residents who are in St George's Hospital as well as keeping the Friendship Club going by running weekly bingo sessions. I also work in the shop along with my husband. I befriend many residents, I know them well and will often accompany them on outings.
