so instead of going to college i want to volunteer in an admin role but i dont know where to start. ive applied to some roles online but i doubt theyll get back to me as ive applied to other roles before and ive not heard back from them. if i can find a good alternative to college then thatll be good. i can then convince my mum to drop out of college.

    a good place to find volunteer roles and even paid roles too is ‘charityjobs’. there’s always lots of admin roles available. i just thought i’d tell u in case u aren’t aware of them. it’s also for all areas of the uk too so it will cover ur area. as well u can select for remote working only if that is something that u wld want. i hope it’s helpful.

    ok i applied to one admin volunteering role on charityjobs and three other admin volunteering roles on my county's volunteering website today so that should be enough for now.
