Volunteering

pinkchocoholic

went to a local charity shop and asked for a volunteer form - apparently they don't give a form until after a trial basis 

booked in for a trial basis for one hour on Tuesday

I don't know if I'm ready yet to do voluntary work, I just wanted a form so I could see what was what and decide when the right time came

  • I know somebody who was interested in volunteering at a charity shop and the same thing happened to them.

    She liked the role, so after a trial period she filled in the form and began volunteering regularly.

    From what she told me, the charity shop didn’t want any hassle with handing out forms or people not turning up after filling them in. I don’t know if that is the case with your charity shop, but it isn’t particularly helpful for the potential volunteer.
