Volunteering

Any volunteers on here.........I do voluntary work for a local hospital in New Zealand. I work in the Emergency Department on behalf of St John (Ambulance), done it for about almost five years now, find it very rewarding, wondered if there were any other volunteers out there who would like to share there experiences

Hello
I have done quite a lot of voluntary work over the years, including delivering newsletters for Cats Protection and collecting items for raffles, used postage stamps, etc for various charities.
Also volunteering at my local library and being voluntary Memberships Secretary for West Berkshire ARC and Volunteer Receptionist at The Hub.
I enjoyed all of my voluntary work and hope to do more in the future.
