πŸ’™ When Uzma first came along to one of our events, she never imagined where the journey would lead. What started as volunteering at our Food Club became an opportunity to build confidence, develop new skills, meet new people and ultimately progress into paid employment supporting local families.

Today, Uzma is making a difference across her community and credits volunteering as an important part of that journey. In her own words: “The feeling you get after helping is so good for your mental health… it’s just amazing being here, like a second home.” πŸŽ₯

Watch Uzma’s inspiring story and discover how volunteering can open doors, build confidence and create connections that change lives.
