 Hi, I'm Charlie. I volunteered down at the welcome centre. I help people on and off the buses, and I just love it here. I get to meet people from all walks of life, as well as actually learning kind of what life was like back in those days. I really enjoy coming here. It's such a beautiful place, and I enjoy meeting all the visitors who come and all the events that go on throughout the year. I just love it here. It's peaceful. We've always got lovely places to be working. We have lots of good companies, so we chat a lot, and even we get pork cakes sometimes. It's terrific meeting different people, and also the people who work here, who are also pretty fantastic. I work in the pastry kitchen. I've been here 11 years, and I really like volunteering because it's just such a good selection of things to do in the pastry kitchen. I like meeting people as they come in, always say hi to them, meet all the lovely dogs, and it's just a wonderful thing to do. I work in the housekeeping department as a volunteer. I spend most of my days here wandering around, sorting out all the problems in all of the areas. I have a golf buggy that I drive around, which makes life a lot easier going from area to area. It is a fun job. You get to speak to many people. We have a laugh. People are really friendly here at Wadsden Manor. It really is a lovely place to be, and there's always something different going on. The different menus are the autumn, spring and winter. Lots of things to do, Christmas cakes, minced pies, everything's made on site. My role as a volunteer here is as a welcome host, which really encompasses quite a few things. Meeting great people as they arrive here makes sure they know which area they're going to and any specific areas they want to see. We see all sorts of interesting parts on this date. Sometimes they get behind the scenes.
