After years of suffering from travel sickness, I finally tried tablets yesterday. This working on the train thing is really quite pleasant when you're not slowly turning green! – at Scotland, United Kingdom

This may look like work but it's part of my volunteering role. Tonight I'm pulling together our Heroes of Hope presentation for @CR_UK Relay For Life Peterhead. I've done it for years now and the best bit is getting to see how our survivors progress year on year. – at Ellon, Scotland

Cancer survivors involved in the event come along to our special survivor evening each year and get their photo taken for the presentation. I've watched one survivors hair slowly growing back over the last few years and it gives me so much joy.

#VolunteersWeek has involved lots of networking and meeting volunteers. There has been a clear divide in the people I've met: those who have watched Baby Reindeer and know the story behind it and those who don't exclaim when I say my full name! – at Ellon, Scotland
