Hello, my name is Maireadh Knight (Marmalade) and I am so lucky to spend time at Valerie Manor and am thoroughly enjoying my afternoon each week with the residents. I currently work as a Police Community Support Officer for Sussex Police and patrol Shoreham Beach. Before Sussex Police I worked as a Road Runner for Southern FM. I have wanted to find somewhere to do voluntary work for some time now and am delighted it was Valerie Manor. I can honestly say I have a great laugh playing games and doing activities with the residents – they are a great bunch of people. When I am at Valerie Manor I get a warm fuzzy feeling because it’s such a genuinely warm, caring and stimulating environment for the residents.
Come and join us!

Hi, my name is Lydia, I am 18 and currently at college doing my A levels. I hope to go to medical school after college and eventually qualify as a doctor. Valerie Manor has been a great opportunity to meet new people and build up a rapport with the residents living there. I am thoroughly enjoying my work as a volunteer!
