competing in North Lanarkshire in July.<br />

The company has raised more than<br />

£70,000 to help patients at<br />

Nottinghamshire Hospitals during the<br />

last seven years. Managing Director<br />

Darren Calow’s young son Daniel, who<br />

has himself had a transplant, is taking<br />

part in the games.<br />

member of the Association and he and<br />

Amaya’s mum Melanie are keen<br />

supporters of our BIG Appeal.<br />

Lincolnshire company Inzpire Ltd<br />

third year running the company has<br />

supported the Charity.<br />

Could you volunteer for us?<br />

We could not achieve all that we do without the tireless efforts of a team of committed<br />

volunteers who give their time to support the Charity. Volunteers help in many ways, from<br />

carrying out collections at the theatre to marshalling at marathons and setting up stalls as<br />

well as helping our busy calendar of events to run smoothly.<br />

We are keen to bring in more volunteers from all cross sections<br />

of the community and Charity Assistant Lucy Fisher is working<br />

hard to develop voluntary activity across all aspects of our<br />

work. Lucy says: “As summer approaches it looks set to be<br />

another busy year for Nottingham Hospitals Charity so we are<br />

keen to hear from volunteers of all ages, with a wide range of<br />

experience and interests, who would like to support our office<br />

and community activities. In return, we hope to offer a<br />

supportive environment in which you can enhance your skills<br />

and feel valued as part of a friendly<br />

team, by carrying out a varied role<br />

that is stimulating and rewarding.”<br />
