💚 As comes to a close, we'd like to join VAER in thanking all the incredible volunteers who make a difference across East Renfrewshire.

At ERCAH, our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do – from gardening and sewing to supporting events and climate action projects. Their time, skills, enthusiasm, and commitment help create positive change for both people and the planet. 🌍🌱

Thank you to every volunteer for your contribution, support, and passion. We couldn't do it without you! 👏💚

As comes to an end, we want to say a huge thank you to all of the incredible volunteers who support our work and communities across East Renfrewshire. 💜

Every day, volunteers give their time, skills, experience, and energy to help make a positive difference in the lives of others. Whether you're supporting local groups, helping at events, sharing your expertise, or working behind the scenes, your contribution matters and your impact is felt throughout our communities. 🥰

We would also like to recognise the dedicated Trustees, Board Members, and Committee Members who volunteer their time to lead, guide, and support organisations across the third sector. 👏

And a special thank you to our own Board Members. Your leadership, support, and dedication play an important role in shaping our work and helping us make a lasting impact across East Renfrewshire. 🫶

To every volunteer, in every role - thank you. We are incredibly grateful for everything you do and proud to celebrate you this Volunteers' Week.

🌿 Environment Day at Rouken Glen 🌿
On Thursday, we were delighted to take part in the East Renfrewshire Equalities Forum's Environment Day, hosted at our Climate Action Hub in Rouken Glen.
The event brought together people from a wide range of backgrounds and organisations to learn, connect, and celebrate environmental action within our community.
The Climate Hub team ran a bug hotel workshop, giving everyone the opportunity to create their own insect habitat to take home. Bug hotels provide valuable shelter for important pollinators and beneficial insects, including bees, butterflies, and ladybirds. 🐝🦋🐞
A big thank you to East Renfrewshire Equalities Forum for organising such a fantastic event and to everyone who joined us. It was wonderful to see so many people getting involved and taking positive action for nature and biodiversity. 💚
