I have been Secretary and President at the charity for some 8 years together with working in the Boutique. I enjoy working with the volunteers and the other members of our team to fulfill our aim which is to help cancer patients and their family and friends through the trauma of cancer.
I’ve worked on the fringes of the newspaper and magazine industry for some 25 years, designing and typesetting adverts/brochures etc. for various London clients, so using my skill sets help out the charity in this capacity.
Both my husband and I have also worked as volunteers for a charity in our local town, raising funds for Kent Air Ambulance for over 10 years, so charity work was always something we loved to do.
Working for Cancer Care is a very worthwhile experience and it’s good to work with like minded people – all using our differing skills and previous experience and working as a team.
