Celebrating CAB's fabulous volunteers!
💛 A couple of our volunteers missed our special Volunteer Week presentation a few weeks ago.
Board Chair, Richard - also a volunteer - seen here smiling happily out of each photo presented the last of the certificates yesterday.
So top first and left to right, we have:
Vani: Certificate of Appreciation: For providing outstanding Community network meetings and workshops and compiling editorials for Solutions column for Times Magazine.
Linda: Volunteer of the Year Award 2025: Citizens Advice Bureau (Manukau-Eastern) awards this certificate in recognition of her outstanding contribution as a current Board Member, 3 years as a Bureau Interviewer and highly valued Social Media Skills.
Jennifer: Certificate of Appreciation: For outstanding support to the Peer Review team and assisting interviewers to maintain a high level of quality of service to clients.
Each year we present a few certificates to recognise volunteers who have made an outstanding contribution. These get spread around the volunteers from year to year. All of our volunteers are absolute stars!
Congratulations again to all of our fantastic volunteers!
