I delivered a new project in Hounslow ‘Help Your Health’ aiming to get people with long-term physical or mental health conditions into volunteering. This role required a high level of oral and written communication skills, to communicate with our referral partners, organisations with volunteering opportunities and with our volunteers whom all have varying level of needs. As part of this, I created an information document for the volunteers to outline the details of the programme, which is to aid the information we give the volunteers verbally in the first meeting as I identified that the volunteers all take in information in different ways.‘Help Your Health’ is a project that I am passionate about as I believe strongly that organisations benefit greatly from having a diverse volunteer and workforce and that individuals living with long-term health conditions should be able to access as many opportunities as possible.

I was responsible for the recruitment and management of 11 regular office volunteers. This involved planning and running induction training and additional on-the-job training, adapting the style of training to suit the learning style of the volunteer. Additionally, I carried out regular supervisions with each volunteer to assist with the personal development of each volunteer and to ensure that they could carry out the volunteer role to the best of their ability. Another part of my role was to manage day-to-day finance of the team such as raising purchase orders, sending out invoices and managing petty cash. It was vital that I had high organisation skills and kept attention to detail, to ensure the smooth running of the day-to-day finances on the volunteer services team.
