This programme first aired during National Volunteer Week 2020. This week’s music is chosen by or played for some of JOY’s fabulous volunteers. There are some “top of the pops” classics plus some rarely heard music from the opera Thaïs.
And don’t forget, your programme producer and host is a volunteer too! Thank you Timothy Perry!!
