Cue & Review Talking Newspapers

Why I volunteered during lockdown. BBC Radio London and BBC Radio Berkshire  presenter, Paul has known of our charity since he first met the team while interviewing us for BBC Pebble Mill at One in 1985.  Paul's passion for radio has meant that during lock-down he has been regularly contributing to our daily readings of Scottish newspapers. www.cueandreview.com/be-a-volunteer

How EDVA have kept supporting and recruiting volunteers during lockdown

Greg talks to Liz about his involvement with our Wellbeing Festival his career and how he is coping with lockdown.   This is an hour-long fun interactive online singing group. Led by Greg Friel, the group will do warm-up exercises and sing pop songs. Clear some space around you and get ready to let your hair down and do some dancing as well! This is NOT a choir, this is an informal, fun session where people get to connect with one another and have some laughs using music. Lyrics will be provided in advance. It is advised that headphones are worn to provide the best audio quality.  These sessions are for staff, volunteers supporters and their families who are members of the Cue and Review Facebook Friends group. The events are funded by the Scottish Government Wellbeing Fund #WellbeingFund
