Mayor Cllr Richard Holmes, said: “Volunteers’ Week provides an ideal opportunity to thank local volunteers who give their time so freely to help others. Volunteers are at the heart of our community so it is fitting that Council recognises and rewards this commitment through these encouraging and motivational events.
“As part of this, I’m looking forward to hosting a special reception in Cloonavin during the week, which will give volunteers an opportunity to get together and reflect on their achievements.”
The series of events also includes: ‘Walking for Wellness’ with Causeway Volunteer Centre. Join the group on Wednesday, June 1 at 7pm at Bushmills Heritage Railway Walk, walk with fellow volunteers along this scenic route, followed by refreshments at Bushmills Community Centre.
