Editor's Notes
- Good morning. My name is Tracy Whittle and I’m the Volunteering in Care Homes Project Manager. It’s lovely to see some familiar as well as new faces. For those people who are new – how did you hear about the project? How did it come onto your radar? We want to spread the word about the work we are doing and so I’m just curious to identify how you found out about it. Before I outline the agenda for the morning, I would like to briefly bring everybody up to speed with the project’s aims and progress.
