Ep10: Benita’s volunteering story

In our series looking at Youth Volunteering, we catch up with Benita. 

 

Benita studied Architecture in India and is studying a Masters in Interior Design at the University of Huddersfield. 

 

Listen to her story as she explains how volunteering is helping her gain experience in the creative sector and building important networks. 

 

In addition, the podcast also covers: 

• How she found out about the opportunity
• What benefits she has got from volunteering
• How it has helped her mental health & wellbeing
• How her travel expenses are covered
• What skills she has gained through volunteering 
• Her favourite experiences

These Podcasts have been created in partnership with the Future Creative volunteer programme for young people aged 16-24 years. Future Creative is delivered by TSL Kirklees (the Volunteer Centre for Kirklees) working in partnership with Lawrence Batley Theatre and funded by Arts Council England’s Volunteering Futures grant programme.
