Vicky says, "Voluntary work is one of the best things you can do to help your local community and also to build your own skills. Working with Dan Aid has given me a great insight to how small groups make things happen and I hope that I've made a difference. Everyone here is so passionate and I'm really excited about how Dan Aid can grow nationally. I think body piercing is seen by a lot of people as quite trivial and it's important to get the message out to young people in particular, that there are risks involved and to make sure they know the facts." |

| Vicky Powers is a CSV volunteer and came to Sheffield in the summer of 2007. Vicky joined our campaign working team in July 2007 and helped us tremendously with many different issues regarding our campain work during this time. Vicky left Sheffield and us in March 2008 to pursue other volunteering roles. Here she explains briefly about why she became a Dan Aid volunteer. |
Vicky is a full time volunteer with the charity, Community Service Volunteers, and worked on a project called "Agents 4 Change" based with BBC Radio Sheffield to encourage more 16 to 25 year olds to get involved in community work. Vicky Powers worked with the Dan Aid Team from July 2007 until March 2008. Vicky came along to many of our meetings and was always willing to help out in any way she could. One of Vicky's aims was to try and get volunteers involved with the work we do in schools and our funraising projects. We found Vicky was a real assett to our team and we all wish her well for the future. |
