The inspirational impact of a charity’s remarkable volunteers has been praised by the young people whose lives they have helped enrich.
Moving stories of the connections made by Dumfries and Galloway Befriending Project (DGBP) have been shared as the organisation marked 25 years of making a positive difference.
Since September 1997, the charity has worked with 1,500 eight to 18-year-olds from Gretna to Stranraer, with its specially-trained volunteers spending more than 100,000 hours of quality time with those supported.
