Student Volunteering Week 2024 – Bash
We’re celebrating our wonderful student volunteers for their invaluable dedication and hard work in helping people across England and Wales. We’re so proud of all of you 🥳 #SVW2024
“Volunteering at Citizens Advice has been absolutely incredible. It is a real privilege to help others and make such an impact on their lives, especially when they are experiencing significant hardship. The work is intellectually stimulating, with new challenges posed by the issues our clients face every day. Fortunately, there is a good balance of individual responsibility and support, allowing you to learn and grow as an individual. Speaking to our clients, who come from all walks of life, is truly enlightening, granting you a unique perspective. Such exposure to real-life people and problems combined with the privileged responsibility to help solve them is truly remarkable. The people at Citizens Advice are incredibly welcoming and kind, fostering an almost family-like environment. Ultimately, whatever your future goals are, Citizens Advice offers you the unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact on your local community, while developing skills and bettering yourself as a person.”
Bash has been volunteering with us since September 2022 and we are so glad to have him on our team! Bash’s dedication to his work on AdviceLine has made a real difference to clients both locally and nationally. His commitment, positive attitude and empathy towards others is amazing and embodies what we’re all about!
