GOGA in Fife was privileged to play host to Darren Wyn Jones from Volunteering Matters on Wednesday 14th August. Darren visited the Michael Woods Sports & Leisure Centre and met and interviewed Robert Anderson and Adam Faulds from the GOGA in Fife peer mentor volunteer team. “We had a most enjoyable day with Darren” was one of many positive comments at the end of the day.
Adam and Robert were selected to represent the team along with Colleen Melville who sadly had to call off because she was unwell. Darren asked the boys lots of questions about being a peer mentor volunteer and not surprisingly he received lots of very positive responses. In due course Darren’s findings will be written up and shared.
Adam and Robert are two very committed peer mentor volunteers as well as being very active sportsmen. Robert recently led part of the Thursday multi sport warm up with around 70 participants and Adam is a qualified community walk leader. Both boys are very committed to the volunteering cause.
