The Mayor of Haywards Heath has declared himself 'humbled' after attending the AGM of Good Neighbours CARE.
Cllr Howard Mundin heard details of the work the group has been doing for the local community for the past four decades.
He said:
“This was an eye-opening event for me to attend and I have nothing but praise for the extraordinary work going under the radar in our community.
"Volunteers from Good Neighbours CARE take residents in their own cars to hospital or doctor’s appointments, on shopping trips or to visit friends and relatives in local care or nursing homes.
"I would like to wholeheartedly thank Christina and all of the volunteers who keep this brilliant charity going with their kindness and generosity of spirit.”
Good Neighbours CARE is a voluntary organisation, founded in 1983, it currently boasts more than 150 volunteers but the demand for services is increasing.
They offer practical help to the residents of Ansty, Ardingly, Cuckfield, Haywards Heath, Horsted Keynes, Lindfield, Scaynes Hill and Wivelsfield Green.
