In 2019, we want to celebrate our wonderful Community Champions and so each month, we will be giving one of our champions the new Community Champion of the Month badge.

Community Champions are our team of volunteers who are the friendly, welcoming face of our community, they work with us to make our community a safe, supportive space for us all.  They give up their time freely to support us all and we are so honoured to have them all on board.

This month, we would like to give a very special thank you to the October Community Champion of the month @thespiceman

@thespiceman has been a champion with us for around 18 months now and he actually won Community Champion of the Month in February this year. But we just wanted to recognise again just how kind, caring and committed he is to our online community. I have had the pleasure of looking after @thespiceman as a volunteer for all this time and I can honestly say that whenever I see his name pop up on the community, it makes me smile. 

Thank you to our recipe king, our welcoming wonder, our gentle friend @thespiceman for all he does as a volunteer here on the online community. It is an honour to have you on our team.

Every one of our champions is so special to us and I know how special they are to all our community members too, so I hope you join us in congratulating them each month this year.

If you are interested in becoming a Community Champion, then head over to this webpage for more information and to apply.
