Vet charity in volunteer plea

A VETERINARY charity is urging Capital residents to consider volunteering to help develop the skills to secure a new job.

PDSA, which has more than 5300 volunteers on its books nationwide, has released figures showing that 40 per cent of its surveyed former volunteers moved on because they found a job or went back into education.

In return for people donating their time, PDSA offers a volunteer training programme giving volunteers the opportunity to enhance their CV.
