Volunteer Corner
What kind of volunteering do you do?
​At Spotlight, I am a music volunteer and help out with music production workshops and recording sessions. I also led a summer percussive theatre workshop for youths and will be kickstarting another semester of percussive theatre in the coming September! I used to help out at music classes at neighbouring primary schools whilst in university.

What do you enjoy about volunteering with young people?
​I enjoy volunteering in general - and it's not about what I get from it, I guess! For me, it's about finding something we all enjoy doing and trying to lend an extra pair of hands or giving guidance, particularly in a field I have experience in, when I can. With Spotlight youths, they bring a lot of energy, talent and personal drive into every volunteering session I've been to. Music is a way for many to express their thoughts and dreams, so being able to help youths with that at Spotlight has been very rewarding for everyone involved.​

What can we find you doing when you’re not at Spotlight?
​Drumming on garbage bins in theatre shows, designing playlists for clients, curating music for a music technology company​ and studying for my degree in Composition, whilst trying to get as much sleep and kale as I can!

Have you got three words that sum you up?
​Live, love, learn​
