Congratulations to local volunteer Rosemary Fletcher, who was awarded an MBE for her voluntary work in NHS Forth Valley during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Rosemary, who received her MBE at Windsor Castle on 2nd February 2022, has spent more than a decade as a volunteer and co-ordinates the Retired and Senior Volunteer Programme (RSVP) in NHS Forth Valley after working for more than 40 years as an occupational therapist.

RSVP is a programme run by the UK volunteering charity Volunteering Matters which encourages and assists older people to use their skills and experience to volunteer and keep active in retirement.
