Laura is a new volunteer at Soul. This is her 4th shift. Laura knows what it is like to be vulnerable.
Justine is originally from Albury. She ran her own business for 20 years. She has three boys and loves the outdoors and her dog Echo.
Justine came to Soul after a life-changing moment where she nearly died from a bad cycling accident. She took this as a warning sign to slow down, be resilient and overcome adversity.
What have you learnt from other guests and volunteers at Soul?
Soul gives our guests the opportunity to ‘just be.’ As you are a volunteer you can be open to yourself, there isn’t the pressure normal workplaces have. What you offer is accepted.
What would you say to others about volunteering at Soul?
Volunteering can be intimidating, come along and see how it rolls, and you will be surprised at how the experience naturally evolves. Thank you, Soul, for being here for guests and volunteers, it enriches the lives of both.
