I was keen to move from working in the corporate to the charity sector, and so I approached CLIC Sargent to try and gain more experience through volunteering.
What does your role involve?
I was given a three month research project on charity challenge events across the UK. I spent 2 days a week on the project and then presented my findings to the events staff and senior management.
What motivates you to volunteer?
Volunteering has helped me to decide on my career path and to establish what is important to me. Supporting a charity that helps children and families affected by cancer is incredibly rewarding and it’s great to have the chance to share my expertise at the same time as picking up new skills.
