About Us

 

Brilliant Volunteers was founded by Diane Richmond, whose passion for volunteering and community support has been shaped by both personal experience and professional expertise.

 

Diane has volunteered extensively throughout her life, gaining a deep understanding of the commitment, generosity, and dedication required to support charities, community groups, and local initiatives. Alongside her volunteering, she brings nearly 20 years of experience in planning and delivering special days and meaningful events, ensuring that people feel valued, recognised, and celebrated.

 

 

This combination of lived experience and professional insight is at the heart of Brilliant Volunteers. Diane understands first-hand how much time and energy volunteers give, and how powerful genuine recognition can be in sustaining motivation and wellbeing.

Brilliant Volunteers is supported by a team of like-minded individuals who share the same values of appreciation, inclusion, and community impact. Together, the team is committed to creating opportunities that reward volunteers in a way that feels thoughtful, accessible, and meaningful.

 

Our collective goal is simple: to ensure that those who give their time freely are recognised properly, supported consistently, and reminded that their contribution truly matters.
