Social Work Volunteering in England

My internship was fantastic. I was placed in a field I was interested in (after several rounds of negotiating with my placement advisor) and I discovered a city I loved. However, the housing process was a nightmare. I was put into an accommodation that didn’t provide me with the basic necessities I needed to live. I was promised kitchen supplies which I never received. However, once I was moved everything worked out (luckily).

I had one of the best experience of my life thanks to the Intern Group. I felt like I was part of an awesome family, able to understand my needs. The events have been very useful to know people from all over the world and the internship made me more confident of my strength points and my professional skills. I think it’s a priceless experience because I came back home enriched.
