MALVERN Volunteer Centre will be presented with a Quality Mark next week.

The award is from Volunteer Development England, which carried out a review of the Belle Vue Terrace centre.

Volunteer centre organiser Jo Jordan said: "It's been a valuable opportunity to reflect on and improve the services we offer. We had to achieve a pass in all sections, including supporting volunteers, promoting volunteering and developing voluntary opportunities in Malvern.

"The most important thing is we now have better systems in place for recruiting volunteers and supporting the organisations who need them.

"We hope that this will be reflected in benefits to all those in need in the Malvern community."
