As you will have seen from this news item https://www.hertswelcomes.org.uk/news/young-asylum-seekers-and-refugees-volunteering-over-the-summer we were so impressed by the young refugees and asylum seekers who helped with the playgroup over the summer.
We asked the young people what they felt about volunteering and here are some of their replies: “It was good to interact with new people taking care of kids try to understand them what they need what they like. It was a good time, best time with kids. The best parts were spending time with kids knowing their interest in the activity. Volunteering has helped me a lot as I am shy but this helped me to talk with others.” “I loved volunteering! I had an amazing time with everyone around me. They were all super helpful and positive. The best part was definitely working with the kids and setting up the games for kids to play. We all did our best to help each other out and make sure all the sessions went smoothly. Volunteering helped me engage with people I didn’t know or had never seen before and to be more active during the summer. I also made lots of new friends. I loved it and I will for sure be doing it again if possible!” "Thank you so much for making us feel welcomed at the playroom." "Thank you for the opportunity"😍 "The references are wonderful; they will help us a lot. It was a pleasure to be able to help you this summer. 🫶🏻" "I am so grateful for being part of such a good community like ours!!I love you all so much" 🩷 Comments are closed.
