A YOUNG VOLUNTEER'S STORY.
It has been q pleasure to do voluntary work as my hobby. Also, I find it easy to do. I decided to work with patients at home. They need to live normally again. They feel lonely and want to have a chat with someone . They also want to go out with someone, perhaps to do some shopping or just to get some fresh air It's been geat meeting new people in this way. However, it can be difficult to say gooodbye to them when it all comes to an end.
I am glad to do voluntary work in this way; and there is something for everyone. I think more people of all ages should do voluntary work if they have free time. Younger people will fund volunteering satisfying and fun.
