What a celebration!

We were so honoured to be presented with the King's Award for Voluntary Service by our Patron, His Majesty's Lord Lieutenant of Hertfordshire at our AGM last night.

At the AGM we thanked our outgoing Chair Irene for her amazing contribution to setting up the charity ten years ago and welcomed our new Chair Kate, Deputy Chair John  and Director Katie.

This was also an opportunity to meet and chat to over 150 volunteers, supporters along with partner members, and we were delighted that so many refugees and asylum seekers could join us over delicious food and a marketplace of stalls showcasing the different aspects of our work.

Here you can see a short clip of the award presentation, along with Cadet Warrant Officer Lucy Waller and volunteer Denise who gave a moving speech on behalf of HWR volunteers.
