They understand my needs and try their best to suggest things that are based around what I want. Unity Works really cares about equal opportunities.
Why did you decide to do volunteering?
Because I wanted to be more active and learn new things.
How have you been supported by Work Train Greenwich and by Volunteer Centre Greenwich?
I mainly use Unity Works for job searches. They [Volunteer Centre Greenwich] have been supporting me to learn how to use Canva, Mailerlite, and Twitter. I am helping with digital communications, especially newsletters.
What are you finding interesting in the volunteering you are doing?
I am interested in the different ways that you can communicate to people.
Does doing volunteering help you towards your goal of getting a job?
I have got part-time jobs at the moment. I hope that the type of activities in the volunteer role that I have can become a more permanent job. I would recommend volunteering as it would provide people with good experiences that can prepare them for paid jobs.
