Some of our amazing volunteer Youth Ambassadors have shared what they love about volunteering for #VolunteersWeek. Discover the value of volunteering and why you should do it!
Asma
“Being a volunteer adds some worth in my life. I love meeting people and knowing their story and being a volunteer enables me to do that. I have been involved in a mental health campaign which helped me understand what I should expect from my employer.”
Ciara
“I think the thing that excites me the most about being a volunteer is meeting lots of new and exciting people. I have been involved in talks with politicians and House of Lords members – which still blows my mind and it’s given me a huge confidence boost.”
Amran
- I have met and interacted with lots of people which has boosted my social skills immensely!
- I have learnt how to present myself better in lots of situations
- I have been more involved in helping others with their education/career journeys
Jack
“I love volunteering as it changes lives and gives you experiences you may otherwise not get. You also meet so many wonderful people as well as learn so many great skills and do loads of top things. It’s great for confidence and self esteem!”
Gertrude
- I love the fact that I’m contributing to the national community by acting on behalf of the youth and giving them a voice
- I’ve gained experience in talking to people from all different walks of life
