THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE
I have been a volunteer for about 15 years now on and off in different organisations, in different places and doing different tasks and during that time I have never once looked back. It can be so rewarding, fulfilling and sometimes life changing. I have worked as a driver for the disabled and the mentally ill sometimes taking them to activity centres (giving a hand sometimes) and also the sick for their treatment and doctors appointments. During their journey’s I learned to be a listener which was very rewarding because sometimes my clients would talk to me about some of their problems and what a great feeling it was to know that in some cases a complete stranger trusted me enough to confide in me.
I have also volunteered as a confidant for vulnerable people, usually with children, who have suffered some sort of trauma in their life; I have done volunteer work in offices typing letters and filing and I have also done gardening. The opportunities are endless.
Volunteering works both ways the client gets help and I get my rewards through knowing that I have helped someone who may be not as lucky as me.
