Hey, I’m Abby and I’m in my final year of university. Throughout my time at university I have volunteered extensively and I have seen first hand the positive impact that it can have on individuals and the wider community.
This role is hugely important as volunteering is for everyone, regardless of time availability and the course people are on. Throughout this role I’d like to be able to increase the awareness of volunteering and what it means. Personally I feel it’s not just about giving your time to help others but its about all aspects such as the skills you learn and the new friends you make.
I’d like to be able to have the chance to do this role and to continue the work of previous part-time officers in increasing the awareness and opportunities there are. To show how volunteering can compliment university life and can make people stand out after university
