I currently volunteer and have done for 4 years at Hesketh Bank Christian Centre called “The Hub” I volunteer every Friday evening, working as part of a team, leading games and activities for young people, dealing and talking to parents, and using good communication with the large team that I volunteer alongside

I have also volunteered at events locally, supporting and running a community café when available from college I have learnt to use coffee machines, take orders, deal with customers, and work at a till This café runs every Thursday morning and is well attended

I also volunteer in a youth band This has been a great opportunity to develop skills such as communicating, working alongside others, and working within a team

I worked very briefly as a back-up employee last year for Poppins, but the shifts didn't come up regularly on the days when I was off college, so I only managed to cover a few days However, when I was there I learnt a lot, using coffee machines, making drinks, serving customers, speaking well, and working hard and I loved it I moved to Arden Lea as there was more work and flexibility in my first year of college
