This award is solely for fundraisers, although the charity is currently recruiting a full time Volunteer Coordinator through a grant from the Department of Health and will indeed be reintroducing our award for Volunteer of the Year in due course, which will be in addition to the Fundraiser of the Year award.
I N UK genuinely value all volunteers and fundraisers who do sterling work for the charity and apologise for any confusion the article may have caused.
