Is it best to know beforehand or leave it as a surprise?
Although I didn't actually hear what he said during the evening here is an outline from an email as to why I was given this award.
Here is what the CEO had to say! "The Award for Volunteer of the year was won by Kristen Hey. Kristen came to the Foundation on student placement and very quickly became part of the team and making a unique contribution with her support in designing a fundraising pack, an introducing the ADHD Foundation booklet which was formerly adopted as part of our marketing collateral and given to all 800 delegates at our national conference. Kristen has also volunteered to help with the design of other printed resources for the Foundation. As an individual who has ADHD herself, Kristen learned a great deal about ADHD while on placement – her enthusiasm for learning, understanding and improving her own skills in order to optimise the creative abilities that are found in the ADHD brain, made this the perfect student placement for kristen and enabled her to develop both personally and professionally. We are above all, delighted with her generosity and the unique contribution she has made to the Foundation’s work and she is a worthy recipient of our Volunteer of the Year Award.
