Meet the Team
Emma Rogers, Co-Chair
"I have been a volunteer since 2013, and there has never been a dull moment in all of those six years. Working in the Cafe has given me the opportunity to work alongside other volunteers while serving patients, visitors and staff. We always look forward to new opportunities and 2019 is turning out to be a great year for us. We are proud to volunteer at this wonderful hospital and I am equally proud to be Co-Chair with Linda."

"Linda Wimble, Co-Chair
"I first started volunteering at the hospital in 2009, and since then it has been an absolute privilege to work in Meet & Greet and the Tea Trolley. 2019 represents a milestone for the Friends, not only as we celebrate 84 years of supporting the hospital but also because, since 2008, we have donated just over £2m. We are very proud of our volunteers are super lucky to have them and I couldn't be more proud to be Co-Chair with Emma."
