Well done to Holly and Cheryl.

Congratulations on completing the VCWI/Ark pilot programme.

Happy Volunteers' Week.

A short partnership pilot programme between Volunteer Centre Western Isles (Lewis) and Ark Housing Association concluded this week. The aim of the programme was to support participants to explore the purpose and value of volunteering.

The programme showcased the shared values of both organisations, with participants demonstrating inclusion, responsibility, and a strong sense of community.

Over several weeks, the group took part in hands‑on activities with local charities, including a Keep Scotland Beautiful litter pick, volunteering at the Blythswood shop, and learning about the vital work of the RNLI.

Their enthusiasm and commitment highlighted the strength of partnership working and the potential for more people to experience the joy of volunteering.
