My name is Ann. I worked as a volunteer in 2013 because I wanted to do something to help others. I called some charity shops to ask if they needed volunteers. I was glad that one of the Sue Ryder shops said yes.
V olunteering in the shop helped me know what shop work was like and I was surprised to find hoe much I really enjoyed doing it. Lots of people gave us things they didn’t need to sell. In this way Sue Ryder raised money to care for people with serious illness(疾病). I always left the charity shop late because I knew hoe important the work of Sue Ryder was.
Another thing I enjoyed about volunteering was talking with other volunteers in the shop. They were friendly and helpful. I really improved my teamwork skills(技巧) by volunteering.

it and I’m sure they will be useful in the future.
