A COVENTRY and Warwickshire volunteer who has supported charities in the region for over 30 years has been named as the latest winner of a campaign that celebrates the community’s kindness.
Muna Chauhan, who has given back to local and national causes for more than three decades through voluntary work and fundraising, has been recognised by Wright Hassall’s 175 Acts of Kindness campaign.
The law firm, which is celebrating its 175th anniversary this year, has been asking the public to nominate members of the community who have gone above and beyond to support others.
A monthly winner is then selected by staff to receive a £175 donation to be given to a charity of the winner’s choosing.
Muna said: “It was a real shock to be named as the latest winner as there have been so many incredible Acts of Kindness shared since the start of the year.
“The funds will make a real difference to the life of a child who is being supported by Safeline, so I am extremely grateful for the nomination and for being selected.”
Muna combines a wide range of voluntary work with her role as Development Coordinator at Safeline, a charity which works to prevent sexual abuse and support those affected.
She works to raise funds and awareness to support men, women and children who are victims of or are vulnerable to sexual abuse in Stratford, Warwick and Leamington.
Robert Lee, Corporate Partner at Wright Hassall, said: “Muna has shown an astonishing commitment to voluntary work, focussed primarily in Coventry and Warwickshire but also supporting national and international causes.
“I hope that this award goes some way to revealing her incredible work to people in the local area – and might inspire others to give back to their communities by volunteering where they can.”
