A teenage volunteer who dedicates his time to helping out veterans, elderly people, and hoarders every single week by helping them clean and offering them support has been recognised with an award.
Joel Bailey spends his Thursdays every week volunteering at Jigsaw, a mental health charity aimed at helping people with hoarding issues and other mental health problems.
The selfless teen who is studying health and social care at college has spent the last two years volunteering for care homes and a mental health charity to help people suffering with their mental health by lending an ear to listen and offering support to help them in their homes.
At just 18-years-old Joel has built up a shining reputation within the community, and friendships with a lot of the people who attend a weekly group in Mansfield.
He has now been selected as the winner of the Bringing People Together Award 2023.
