Volunteer Profile

I received the QSM in 2000 for services to voluntary and charity work within the community.

I presented a weekly 2 hour 'Jazz Beat' programme on the community radio for 12 years. Also a weekly 1 hour classical programme, back up (when needed) for the gardening, fishing and breakfast programmes.  I also interviewed local women from various backgrounds and achievements for the 'I Am Woman' programme.
