Praxis Volunteers

What our Volunteers are saying.

Hasina Begum is the British born daughter of Bangladeshi immigrants.
Hasina is a volunteer at Praxis while studying for a degree in sociology at the University of London's Goldsmiths College. I've always wanted to do voluntary work and my sister suggested I give Praxis a call. I do a bit of admin and I also assist the advisers. At first I thought Praxis just gave advice but now I realize they do so much more; like the courses helping people with education and employment and the Time Together mentoring scheme. Everyone at Praxis is very friendly and supportive.

If you have any time that you can offer to helping Praxis then please get in touch with us.
