REMEMBERING DOROTHY McDONALD
Sadly, we lost one of our longest serving Trustees, Dorothy McDonald, to Covid-19.
We pay tribute to her dedication and support for our organisation here - and her commitment to older people in Wolverhampton.
She spent her lifetime working as a nurse and midwife and although in her early 80's, was always full of life and joy.
