Can anyone gove me any details of shelters e.c.t in the area who are looking for volunteers?

Pop into Voluntary Action Sheffield on Division St - they act as a central resource for everyone like that in Sheffield. :thumbsup:

What Ive always wondered is... do people who work at the Voluntary Action office Volunteer for the work? :lol:

Nope, they get paid for it.

A mate of mine used to work in the Volunteer place on Division St, he quit a couple of years back to go and work as a Teacher I think.
