Volunteer spotlight: Jemma

"I enjoy volunteering for Healthwatch South Gloucestershire and have been doing it for two years now. This year, I really enjoyed working on the learning disability checklist for people to use during their annual health check."

"I've gained a lot of experience through volunteering. I take part in the quarterly Prioritisation Panels, and make sure the needs of people with a learning disability in South Gloucestershire are not forgotten."
