Becoming a volunteer can be personally rewarding and help you to 'give something back' to your community.
As a volunteer you will be giving your time to help others but you will also increase your own confidence and get a sense of satisfaction and achievement. It's a great way to make new friends, try something new and gain new skills, maybe even increase your future job prospects. There are many ways to volunteer depending on how much time you can spare. Full-time, part-time and evening volunteering are offered by various organisations.
