We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded SILVER in the Vectis Radio Community Awards!
We were recently nominated for a Vectis Radio Community Award and it’s a real delight to share with you the news that VOS was awarded a Silver Award in the ‘People Focused Community Project of the Year’ category!
Our Delivery Manager, Wendy Pearson said:
“Winning the Silver Award at the Vectis Radio Community Awards for Veterans Outreach Support is a tremendous honour. This recognition celebrates the dedication and community spirit behind supporting those who have served. It inspires us to keep making a difference.”
Cheryl Rooney, VOS Isle of Wight Project Officer added:
“Tony and I would like to thank those who nominated us for the Vectis Radio Community Award. Winning the Silver award is a very great honour and reassures us that the work we do for the Veteran community on the Isle of Wight is really worth the time and commitment we give. We are also very grateful for the support of our wonderful volunteers.”
