Make your New Year’s resolution count, charity urges
The charity points out that volunteers can gain a lot from working in its retail arm. John Ellis, Barnardo’s Head of Retail Volunteering, said: “Our shops are incredibly important in terms of fundraising, but they are also very professionally run and volunteers can gain valuable experience and a lot of enjoyment out of joining their local store team.
“Volunteering is ideal no matter what your age, whether you are looking to improve your CV for a career change or plump up your personal statement for college and university entries. It’s also a great way to build confidence and improve your social circle as you will get the opportunity to try new things and meet people from all walks of life who come together in support of Barnardo’s.”
