On Christmas day it was so heart warming to hear King Charles speech, about how we should protect the natural environment.
It was good to hear King Charles 3rd speech, how he praised community volunteers. He spoke about community volunteers, those who work tirelessly for so little recognition or reward, I completely agree for I have seen their very valuable work, that they do in their communities and in my community to help the poor and needy.Â
They are doing it because they care, they believe in giving their fellow man a helping hand, whether it be in foodbanks packing bags, donating food and handing out food to families that need that little bit of extra food to help them survive through until payday. (And may I just add both the poor and also the middle class, who are affected by Brexit, the pandemic and cost of living crisis, so the emergence of foodbanks is quite a recent widespread event.)
There are also the volunteers who are concerned about the environment, they work in my community too they help maintain the natural habitats for the birds, insects and animals.Â
They want their communities to be well maintained, eco- friendly, tidy and clean. A place where people can sit and enjoy nature and be proud of their community, where they live and can feel better improving their physical and mental well being in parks, green spaces and in woodlands.
Then there are those volunteers who are helping the various charities, in hospitals and in shops. They give up their time to support others by helping to run the shops that raise much needed funds for organisations, so that they can continue to help the sick, the elderly and children in need.
I applaud King Charles for pointing out that we need to look after one another and protect each other. We have more in common than we know and must think of our shared beliefs not any divisions. Therefore doing no harm to others, but to respect others so fulfilling the command- "do unto others as you wish them to do unto you" as As the Lord has taught to his followers and to the world.
