"I made the decision to volunteer with the Heart of Kent Hospice as I wanted to give back to a charity that gave so much to my family, caring for my Grandad in his last weeks. I gained so much in the 2 years I volunteered from retail and customer service experience to great friendships with the people I worked with. I volunteered alongside studying at university and working part time and the hospice were brilliant at allowing me to be flexible to fit everything in. The experience I have gained has been invaluable and I thoroughly enjoyed my time as a volunteer for the Heart of Kent Hospice."
