Organisation: Libyan Relief Association

Name: Osama Faraj Mohammed

Position: Volunteer

 

"I have been a volunteer since the age of 12 , getting involved in various activities such as; food distribution, first aid, fundraising, environmental awareness. One of the main reasons I participated in the workshops is because I want to teach others to be good citizens and encourage voluntary work within the community. I want to have the leadership skills to be able to initiate this change. I feel that I have benefitted from others attending the workshop I was able to network and interact with a calibre of individuals from different organisations, background age and experience. This in itself is a vital resource;  a platform was given to us to share our opinions and it was interesting to see the opinions of others."
