Pretty sure there's a few people round here with some knowledge of the volunteering sector so hoping to pick some brains (not in a zombie way...).
I'm thinking of doing some volunteering but I'd prefer to have a go at something a bit more behind the scenes, at least to begin with, and struggling a little to understand what options there might be and where's best to look.
Having done some Googling, there are plenty of very worthy opportunities, even in a rural area like mine, I'm just not terribly comfortable with doing much face to face stuff. I'd like to be able to help in that way and have a lot of respect for people that do, but awkward silences are more my thing than reassuring small talk....
It'd be something to do some evenings and weekends around a full time job.
Would appreciate some thoughts from those more in the know about these things
