Last Revision: November 2023.

Between 2016 and 2020, I volunteered for the Stroke Association in the UK. This involved visiting the ward at my local hospital, the same ward that I myself used, and chatting to other survivors.

In addition, I started volunteering in 2017 for Age UK, a national charity focussed on the elderly. I volunteered for this charity until I started a full-time job, in March 2023. The work involved weekly telephone calls to lonely, elderly people. It was particularly important during COVID, when many of my clients were both vulnerable to COVID, and isolated.
