We are delighted to have been awarded The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service, the MBE for volunteer groups. In this podcast we talk to four women who have been involved with Smart Works Reading; Sarah Burns MBE, the Chair of our Board of Trustees, Melanie Prater, volunteer head of stock, Claire Murdoch, volunteer trustee, and one of our clients, Summreen. Host LJ Stocks chats with them about the history of Smart Works Reading, as well as what motivates and inspires our volunteers, and the impact that has on our clients.
