Said the following about Daphne Davies-Porter:

“Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic Daphne has continued to do a huge amount of volunteering work in her own time for her local community at homeless shelters and other charities through her local church. She does this in addition to a very busy day job. Not only this, but Daphne has organised a regular collection box at Liverpool Street Service Delivery Centre, organising donations of food and clothing to the local Whitechapel mission which has been vital for them throughout the pandemic. We were able to provide regular donations that the charity really needed as they had less because of the pandemic. She also ensures that monetary donations happen, and on a recent office clear-out made sure that anything that was re-useable was donated to a local charity rather than being thrown away. Her dedication and drive to help others is really clear, and she uses these skills wherever she can to help those in need.“
