Positive effects of volunteering……….

23 Jan 2012

A youth volunteer, working with Get Changed Theatre Company has now worked on a number of Get Changed projects and his teacher reports the effect this work has had on him cannot be underestimated.  They tell us that volunteering with Get Changed has focussed his outlook and he has now applied to do a Health and Social Care Course in September because he enjoyed working with Get Changed so much. 

 The volunteer has shown to be responsible, reliable and creative which has given him a huge boost in terms of his self esteem. Working with Wolf and Water and Get Changed was a turning point and the experience has transformed his life and his future opportunities.  The work experience has also contributed to the volunteer achieving a qualification – ASDAN CoPE Award which will contribute to the qualifications needed to attend college.

Working with this young volunteer has been fantastic and his completion of his compulsory education within a mainstream setting would have been unlikely without this volunteering opportunity.

 Get Changed Theatre Company working in collaboration with Wolf and Water are pleased to have offered such a positive opportunity. We thank the young volunteer for everything he has contributed. We hope that you can continue to be a part of what we do.
