Why I volunteer by Michael

Why I volunteer…

“A friend of mine volunteered for a blood bike group in the South of England and hearing about what he was involved with and the role he played in their group really interested me so I searched to see if there was something similar local to me and I discovered NBB.

Why I volunteer…

“I heard about the charity through a friend who volunteers for another Blood Bike group in the South West.

We are both keen motorcyclists and are also keen to give to charity. What a great idea to do both. I have always admired volunteers and their dedication to a cause. I joined in March 2024 and became a rider for the first time in the October.
