Celebrating Our Amazing Volunteers at Calber!
We are thrilled to celebrate the incredible Calber team generously volunteering their time to support the VCI pop-up cafes. They dedicate a few hours each month to transport Vale residents to our pop-up cafes. Their kindness significantly impacts everyone, ensuring they can socialise and enjoy a warm cup of coffee and a slice of cake.

Quotes from Calber:
“I found it very rewarding to be able to do something for the community, especially for people who may only get one opportunity each week to get out and socialise. To be able to help facilitate that feels great.”
“This is such a lovely thing to do and help with the local community. All our passengers are a delight.“
“Volunteering to drive elderly people to a coffee afternoon is a simple yet meaningful way to brighten their day and was so enlightening to talk to them and hear their stories on the journey there and back.”
