We are delighted to announce the shortlisted nominees for this year's Volunteer Awards.
Collaborative
Sybil Fowler (Rhiwbina Friends of Tenovus Cancer Care)
Sybil loves to sing and has been with Cardiff North Sing with Us choir since its launch in 2012. She has led many wide and varied fundraising events, involving large groups of people working together to raise valuable funds for Tenovus Cancer Care. Two successful fashion shows, where Sybil was a popular MC, led to a catwalk full of confident models, helping to raise the roof and funds, along with her arrangement of entertaining concerts, quiz nights, coffee mornings and panto performances. Sybil is a force of nature.
Christine Plant (Retail, Community Engagement, Choir)
After receiving support during her own cancer diagnosis, Christine became a true advocate for the charity, using her personal experience as a driving force to give back and help others. A valued member of the Sing with Us Llandudno choir, it’s not just her voice but she brings her compassion and community spirit to every rehearsal and performance. As a volunteer with the Community Engagement team, she delivers heart-felt talks and raises awareness of the vital services the charity provides. It doesn’t end there as Christine volunteers in the
Tenovus Cancer Care retail shop in Conwy. Her spirit shines through in her incredible fundraising efforts too from fire walks to Canter for Cancer, a horse-riding fundraiser.
Nori Hirano (Head office volunteer)
Nori volunteers regularly at our head office. Creative and innovative, Nori uses his skills to help manage our learning platforms and is quick to offer his support across the charity. He is patient and has great attention to detail, becoming a key member of the team, working on spreadsheets, often testing ideas to ensure they work first and coming up with helpful ideas to support data development.
