Volunteers:

Although the idea of giving back to society is often persuasion enough to volunteer, donating time to a good cause can positively impact the individual in other ways too.

As well as the sense of gratification gained from giving your time to people who need it, you can also benefit from many other mental and physical gains such as:

• Increased confidence by trying something new
• Meeting new people and being part of a community
• Learning new skills
• Being active (depending on the role)
• Having fun!
• The social values of volunteering are numerous but, as you might imagine, difficult to quantify. Studies have however, revealed that volunteers are generally happier and healthier than non-volunteers (ons.gov.uk).

We welcome volunteers to assist our charity meets its objectives in the UK, Sierra Leone as well as any other countries we work in the future.
