Recognising our Volunteers

Today, 20 April 2017, is Volunteer Recognition Day and so we want to take this opportunity to thank all those who have given their time to Derbyshire Asbestos Support Team over the past year. Some of the things that people have done for us include:
  • ·       Befriending someone
  • ·       Raising sponsor money
  • ·       Distributing leaflets to doctors’ surgeries
  • ·       Speaking about DAST at events
  • ·       Serving on our committee
  • ·       Attending a supporters meeting
  • ·       Put us forward to be a supermarket’s chosen charity
  • ·       Made something crafty for us to sell

Without this kind of help, we would have considerably fewer resources – both in terms of money to spend on services and the services themselves. Sometimes, only a person that has been directly affected by Mesothelioma can do the job needed. To all of you…

Thank You!

And we’ll give you a call.
