Cornwall Samaritans presented with The Queens Award for Voluntary Service

I was on Monday delighted to witness the presentation of The Queens Award for Voluntary Service to Cornwall Samaritans at Truro.

Cornwall Samaritans assist those in distress, and typically deal with over 4,000 contacts a month. The group consist entirely of volunteers. In addition to taking calls, emails and visits at their base in Truro the Samaritans work at Treliske, supporting patients, family and staff when they are facing difficult and upsetting situations

I am pleased the dedication and service of the volunteers at Cornwall Samaritans has been recognised by this prestigious award.
