Story
The Royal Voluntary Service is a charity primarily aimed at older people, though few people realise how much the charity helps others. When i was first introduced to the organisation, i was out of work and suffering from social anxiety issues. It was suggested that i volunteer with the RVS in an office setting, to help my confidence with strangers. Nearly three years later, i'm now the one helping others as an employee of the charity.
In order to help the Tees Valley hub continue to help others, be they our own demographic or people like myself who need the voluntary role to fulfill their own needs, i'll be cutting off my hair and beard. All monies raised will go to the Royal Voluntary Service and the hair itself will be donated to make wigs for charity.
