“TCS is a bustling, energetic wee charity wonderfully run by a dedicated team, and I feel cherished and happy to be one of the volunteers. Even in a small way, to be able to give of my time to help someone with cancer and in pain and stress, seemed almost a privilege........and it is........just that. You meet lovely people. You get a wonderful feel-good- factor after a positive phone call or visit. You realise how very lucky you are to be hale and hearty. It really is a satisfying way of using a little of your free time. ”
