It's All About Kate Healey!
In her final year studying Marketing, Kate Healey is taking on the role as Volunteering Officer. Kate has the responsibility this year to work on revitalisation and improvements. We went to meet her and ask all about her new position in Hallam Volunteering...
What initially made you join Hallam Volunteering?
"I knew I wanted to join a club, but I'm not a sporty type so I joined the Publicity Team, and after three years as a volunteer I haven't looked back!"
What are the three main things you get out of being a Hallam Volunteer?
“Fun, friendship and skills!”
Describe your duties this year as the new Officer?
"My first task as Officer was the recruitment of new volunteers, which was successful due to the record numbers of applications. I also need to build up the recognition and publicity of Hallam Volunteering making sure it is seen a positive light"
Are you excited about the new projects on offer this year?
"I am especially excited about the 'Magic Numbers', as this is the only maths based project. Due to the media's focus on Sheffield's numeracy levels it will be very beneficial, and hopefully Hallam Volunteering can help improve this."
Finally, we asked Kate what her advice would be to other volunteers…
“Get involved and have fun!”
