“I first helped to raise money for DCCF when I was in seven. My friends and I at Talbot Heath School held a cake sale and donated all the money raised to the charity. In my school holidays I started volunteering at events such as helping with the raffle at a Black Tie event. I love to help DCCF. The people are lovely and it’s good to know we are helping local families. I am very proud to be a Young Ambassador for the charity and would encourage anyone of any age to volunteer for DCCF too. It’s amazing.”

“I love being part of the DCCF because you can really see the difference it is making to those in need in Dorset. The highlight for me is hearing the stories of all the people the charity helps. I would urge anyone to get involved in any way they can – big or small. The more of us there are, the more people we can help!”

- Sam Bumford, DCCF Ambassador.

“I feel part of a very special team all striving to the same end - helping those who need financial assistance due to cancer. My father sadly succumbed to cancer at a young age, and I have several friends that have been affected by it too. Sadly, cancer is something that affects most of us these days. But through the DCCF we do make a difference to peoples’ lives.”

- Clare James, DCCF Ambassador.

“It is so lovely to be involved in something so worthwhile. I know how much the help from the DCCF gave me back a very important part of my life. Being part of a ‘team’ again too is confidence building and well, just nice! I missed that a lot after ending work and being deaf, life was getting very isolating.”

- Jackie Ingram, DCCF Awardee and Volunteer.
