Volunteer at Projects Abroad

During a voluntary placement in Ghana I was part of a small team working with local schools and communities to support and educate children. To be able to go I had to fundraise £2,000 on my own. I did this in 6 months through a range of activities, and this helped me to develop skills in contacting people and arranging events.
