Participants have been thanked for a wonderful event that took place at Slough’s main shopping centre last weekend.
The voluntary fair brought together more than 30 groups such as Thames Hopsice and People in Harmony to network and share information about the services they provide.
The event was organised by Slough Council for Voluntary Services (CVS) for the #OneSlough Volunteer Fair, which was attended by Councillor Balwinder S Dhillon (Conservative, Upton) the Mayor and dozens of volunteers.
Participants enjoyed arts and crafts and a Silent Disco Walking Tour of Slough, which involved listening to music and walking around in the town centre.
A staff member who posted on the Queensmere Observatory Shopping Centre Facebook page said: “Over 30 groups were represented and hundreds of people visited the stalls during the course of the day.
“The Mayor of Slough, cllr Dhillon spoke and thanked volunteers and the voluntary sector for all their efforts.
“And a highlight of the day was a fun Silent Disco Walking Tour of Slough with a community twist which began and ended at the Queensmere Shopping Centre.
“It was led by Slough’s CVS Chairman and SWIPE lead, Jamie Green.
“Overall, a great success!”
The voluntary fair took place on Saturday, June 8.
The event was assisted by Love Slough, the brand name of the town’s business improvement district (BID).
