In the Volunteer of the Year category, long-term member John Russell picked up the top prize. Judges said, “John's passion and dedication are evident here. Such dedication needs recognition and demonstrates the impact that one person can have on such an important cause.”

In accepting the prizes on behalf of the charity, Tim and John, Jane Powell, Stamma Chief executive said, "These awards are a lovely recognition and vindication of the whole organisation who have driven and sustained it for over 40 years. Cheers to John, to Tim, and to all of our members, volunteers, trustees, staff, past and present for an awesome organisation."
