This #NationalVolunteerWeek, we are celebrating the powerful waves of kindness, commitment and community created by our incredible volunteers. This winter, DIVERSEcity volunteers made waves at the Surrey Fire Fighters Charitable Society's Gift Wrap Program at Guildford Town Centre.

From gift wrapping to helping people prepare their tax returns, our volunteers help make change happen every single day.
