Celebrating International Volunteer Day 2025

By Communications Heart News   |   5th Dec 2025

The 网曝门 is a community of people who fight to protect and care for every heart affected by heart disease, stroke and thrombosis in Ireland and support those living with these life-changing conditions.

Volunteers are at the heart of what we do, and we couldn鈥檛 do it without their support.

At the 网曝门, we offer a range of support services to help improve the quality of life and well-being of people, and their carers, after a heart event or stroke.

From phoning someone for a chat, to providing vital peer support, or driving a vulnerable stroke patient to their support group, to advocating for patients in communities across Ireland, our volunteers acts of kindness make a real difference.

This International Volunteer Day, we want to acknowledge each and every one of our volunteers, and to thank them for all they do to help us care and support those who need us most.

We spoke with Sanoj about what volunteering with the 网曝门 means to him.

鈥淚 wanted to do something for society, and when I started looking for opportunities, I came across the 网曝门 and saw the impact it is making in the community鈥.

鈥淚 have been volunteering with the 网曝门 for the past eight months. My first day of volunteering was on 24th March 2025鈥.

鈥淚 work as a Patient Support Administrator volunteer. My role is to call stroke survivors and inform them about the aftercare services provided by the 网曝门, so they can receive all the support they need during these tough times鈥.

Sanoj

鈥淚 volunteer for around two hours each week, which helps me balance my studies at UCD and my part-time job at Tesco鈥.

鈥淓ven though I鈥檓 a volunteer, from day one itself I have always felt like I鈥檓 part of the team. The team were so good in helping me understand how important my role as a volunteer is and they have been so supportive. They provide us with results on how many calls we鈥檝e made, to help us understand the impact we make.”

鈥淓very volunteer makes a difference. Today we celebrate the small acts that create big change, thank you to all our wonderful volunteers for showing that every contribution truly matters. 鈥

Martina Greene is our National Volunteer Manager
