"Helping people in their recovery, and being part of that process is a big part of the appeal of volunteering for me. You can really see the growth and positive difference it makes to peoples lives."

Judith
Volunteer with Alcohol & Drugs Action

Receiving my Saltire Summit Award is an amazing feeling, but the main reason I volunteer is the satisfaction that comes from helping others in my community in Aberdeen"

Lucas
Volunteer with Future Choices

"The transformation I've seen in myself and others, like a quiet service user who became a vibrant volunteer, highlights the positive impact of volunteering."

Amber
Volunteer with Four Pillars

"I lost my brother to addiction, I know how recovery and volunteering helped him so I wanted to give back and volunteer and maybe help someone else on their road to recovery."

Jackie
Volunteer with Alcohol & Drugs Action

"When I lost my job due to my multiple sclerosis this place became a lifeline. Volunteering one day a week allows me to contribute, even in small ways. I like to give something back, even if it's just a little.
