Find volunteering opportunities

Volunteering

Volunteering means giving your time to help others.

You don’t get paid, but it can be a good way to get work experience.

When you volunteer, you can:

• make a difference in other people’s lives
• meet new people and build your confidence
• learn new skills that can help you get a job
