During my time as a volunteer, I acted as a media spokesperson for BYC and became the lead communications volunteer.
Volunteering is not something I had considered until I found this opportunity with BYC. It's helped me gain valuable experiences and ignited my passion for politics. Being involved in campaigning during such an interesting time in British politics has been an unforgettable experience.
I'd definitely recommend the experience for anyone looking for a unique, hands-on volunteering opportunity and where being a young person is an advantage, not a barrier.
