Join us at our Camden and Islington November 2020 Volunteering Fair when we are once again joining forces with our good friends @ Volunteer Centre Islington on Tuesday 10th November, 12.30-2pm online via ZOOM. Did you know that volunteering is good for you? Studies show that volunteering can improve and maintain your mental and physical health, and well as helping with the effects of stress, anxiety and low self esteem. And the social contact of helping and working with others can have a profound effect on your overall psychological wellbeing. Good times. IMPORTANT! To get the best experience from this volunteering fair you will need to have installed the latest version of Zoom (either the app or the web client). In other words, to self select the Breakout Rooms you will need Zoom 5.3.0 or later. Why not update now?
