How the voluntary sector changes lives in Somerset
28th Sep 2023

“If it wasn’t there, I think that several of our clients would definitely go downhill, very, very quickly.”

These are the words of Mike, a volunteer driver from Street Volunteer Driver Service, one of the organisations featured in our new film about the incredible work of local charities and the positive impact they have on people’s lives.

The film, which also features the Kite Project in Minehead and the Hub at Bridgwater, is a testament to the generous individuals who dedicate their time, skills and energy to help others.

These amazing groups, like many others across the county, are at the heart of our communities, providing essential support and services to make Somerset a better place to live.

 

 

We hope you enjoy watching the film and invite you to share it with your contacts and via social media. Please remember to tag @sparksomerset, when you do.

We want to shine a spotlight on the impact of our sector by sharing more inspiring stories. So, if you have a film about your own work that you would like us to share, please email our Communications Lead; lindsey.brown@sparksomerset.org.uk.
