D of E Sections Page

We’d like candidates to start off with 5 ideas for each section which have been added into your Showbie group.

As volunteering tends to be the section that people struggle most with we have linked some further ideas below.

• The section or category of volunteering your activity comes under
  • Helping people
  • Community action and raising awareness
  • Coaching, teaching and leadership
  • Working with the environment or animals
  • Helping a charity or community organisation

I would encourage you to ask questions of each other to make this a more valuable process and we will be drawing out your discussions with more questions if we feel it needs further explanation or though.

Good luck with completing your award!
