The Merton and Morden Guild - Staff and volunteering and contributes.

For a small independent charity, The Guild provides a good range of social activities for older people and services for individuals, such as our foot services and acupuncture sessions.

The size of the organisation means we all have to do a bit of everything with Hamish, seen wielding a brush outdoors, and Anjela the vacuum cleaner indoors.

We also rely on a fine and very reliable team of volunteers with thanks going to Jo, Niki, Kainut, Vashanthy and Tina for significant support over the summer. A specific mention to Taylor, previously our work experience student who has given up school holidays to help in a variety of ways.

Finally, thanks to those people who attend for helping welcome new members.

We were pleased to receive two unsolicited compliments this week:

"Just a brief message:
Please give my thanks to all this morning.
I started the day feeling very depressed, but thanks to you, I'm feeling much better, I really am very grateful to you; I'm fining quite hard these days and without the Guild to look forward to, I don't think I could cope as well as I appear to be coping."

And

"You and Anjela and other helpers do a marvellous job; you probably don't realise what a good job you do. The other members, like me are no doubt very grateful.
My thanks and best wishes to you all."
