Debbie Thomson, chief executive of CLAN Cancer Support, explains how helping charities brings its own rewards
The city of Aberdeen is home to hundreds of third-sector organisations and charities all striving to provide comfort, help and support for a wide range of issues. Each of these organisations has a vital role to play in ensuring that people in the north-east have access to facilities and support that will make a difference during difficult times.
Healthy competition is present, but not between organisations as you would expect. I believe each individual charity strives to be the best they can be and this, in turn, has an incredibly positive impact on the level of care and support there is available, for free, within Aberdeen.
