I've been volunteering for more than four years now, I'm more confident and this year I won the Nacro National Volunteer of the Year Award.
When I was a bit younger, I didn't really care about what trouble I got into. But volunteering showed me the damage I was doing, and has allowed me to put something back into the community. If it hadn't been for Nacro and Roy Thickett (the project worker), I don't think I'd be here today.
