This National Volunteering Week, we are shining a light on the incredible individuals who dedicate their time, energy and hearts to Horizons. Our volunteers are the bridge between our organisation and the wider world, ensuring that the people we support lead active, social and fulfilling lives.
We introduce you to inspiring two Horizons’ volunteers: Noreen Dooley and Tom Murray.

"My main aim is to ensure people achieve their goals, highlight their choices and make sure their voices are heard.”
