Tony - Tooting Bec

"I've been volunteering here for nearly ten years now...

"I suffer with depression and anxiety, and am a recovering alcoholic as well, so this keeps me busy while also allowing me to gain new skills...

"Volunteering here has given me a lot of confidence. When I started I would barely come out of the back room. Now I serve at the till, I put clothes out, talk to everybody...

"Perhaps the best thing though is the charity itself, and that it helps people with HIV."                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

Geraldine - Battersea Park Road 

"I love volunteering in B2 Wandsworth Oasis.⁠
I love working with everybody there and I get on really well with everyone. I really can't thank Wandsworth Oasis for what they have done for me and I really mean that." ⁠

    30 day Reading Challenge

    I have 10 books that I haven't got around to starting yet so I want to read one chapter a day for 30 days. This challenge is inspired by wanting to expand my knowledge on important issues such as climate degradation and the history of HIV and AIDS in the UK.
