Do You Know
Ryan’s charity work is not unusual. Many people donate money and others volunteer to help run charities. On most UK high streets, for example, you will often come across people raising money and looking for volunteers for Cancer Research UK, the British Heart Foundation, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and many more. In China, volunteers are also playing an increasingly important role in environmental protection, disability assistance and many other fields.

Learning to learn
Before making a phone enquiry, take a moment to prepare your questions. Take notes if necessary. Also, remember that it’s okay to ask again when you think it’s not clear enough!
Danny: Winchester Volunteer Centre. How can I help you
Sarah: Hi, yes, my name is Sarah White and I’m interested in doing some sort of voluntary work. Could you tell me how to become a volunteer
Danny: Of course. OK, so, first of all, you need to think about what type of work you would like to do. Any ideas
Sarah: Well... I enjoy working with children, so maybe some work of this kind.
Danny: OK. Let’s see. Do you do any sports at all
Sarah: Yes, I’ve been riding since I was little. I really love horses.
Danny: Well, they do riding classes for kids with disabilities at Peter’s Stables. Perhaps that would interest you.
Sarah: Oh, that sounds interesting. Can you tell me a bit more about it
Danny: The most important thing is for the children to have fun and learn that they can still enjoy sports despite their disabilities. You work one on one with the same children each week, so you get to build a relationship with them. It’s amazing to see how their confidence increases over time.
Listening material
Sarah: That sounds just right for me! What should I do to get the work
Danny: You can call Mrs Erica Marshall, director of the Stables. Her number is 0738695 2054.
Sarah: OK. Is there anything else I need to know
Danny: Once you’ve contacted Mrs Marshall, she’ll want to know if you have previous experience as a volunteer. She’ll probably also want a reference from someone who knows you, just to make sure that you’re the right sort of person for that kind of work. And then, of course, you should think about how often you would like to help out.
Sarah: Right. That all sounds great. I’ll prepare the information needed and call her. Thank you very much.
