Celebrating volunteer week with a shout out to our student from Switzerland, Alba! Since March, she has been behind many of the social media posts you’ve seen at May Gibbs’ Nutcote. From planning events and designing posters to keeping the café and gift shop running, she has proven to be our very own multifunctional "Swiss Army Knife”. We wish her well on her next adventure.
