Volunteering
 

I went to go see someone today about volunteering in charity shops to fill up my week :) Have any of you ever volunteered to work somewhere?

I used to volunteer in a PDSA charity shop and I'm looking to start in an RSPCA shop soon. Definitely go for it. :)

Yea, a shop for a childrens hospice when I was out of work

It's always good for your cv

I left though cause they started to want me in all the time like I was actually being paid for it..

I used to work in an RSPCA shop in Bury

I enjoyed it but the slogan on the shop front never sat well with me

"Helping Bury animals"


:umm2:

:laugh3:

I volunteered at the PDSA too, for 2 and a half years

Yeah, I did it for a while with BHF a few years back, it's worth doing it for your CV.

It hasn't worked well on my CV lmao

:laugh2:

Haha :laugh: I went to school in Bury.....there are a few animals there that deserve burying (not the four legged kind mind)

Yeah did a year in a charity shop for Cancer Research when I was in Sixth Form! I liked it. It was really nice around christmas time when you could sell things for charity. I made the most money for the charity and I'm pretty proud of that tbh

Yeah I volunteered at the British Heart Foundation and it looks good on your CV/uni application. Although I exaggerated by duties in my CV :hee:

Volunteered in a YMCA shop in the Summer.

Yes, I have done Voluntary work.

Whats the Deal
Tea and meal free/


Subsistence to fund your journey to them?


Lay it On The Table B. S.

Were you able to Keep Fit
while helping?

Do you get Fit
helping them?

Five summers and easters, starting from the age of 12. I was helping in a respite program for disadvantaged/at risk children. It was very rewarding, kept me off the streets too. I also fostered puppies and kittens who had been orphaned since I was around 11 in association with the animal welfare association of the city.

I thought you'd never worked a day in your life?

You're right, benefits scroungers like me would never do a day of work, I actually spent all of those days drinking cider in the tesco parking lot

Better

Lmao

how nice

Now why you gotta shade Scott like that?

omg
