St John saved him and 40-plus years later he's still volunteering
A passing ambulance picked Vernon "Bill" Hill up off the road after a motorbike accident in 1956. He was 22 at the time, and injuries almost cost him his left hand. A few years later he decided he'd better give something back to the organisation which saved him. It was the start of 40-plus years of volunteering and, at 85, he's still going.
We're just coming to the end of National Volunteer Week. Do you know some great volunteers?
