Pete’s Volunteering Journey
Pete first came to Longfield over three years ago, when his wife, June, was living with cancer. He made a promise to June that he would do whatever he could to support Longfield, and he continues to honour that promise through his volunteering. Always willing to lend a hand, Pete embraces every opportunity to help, becoming a valued member of the Longfield team and helping us support even more people across Gloucestershire.
