Volunteering is a great way to gain experience after your GCSEs while supporting a cause or organisation you care about. Although volunteering does not always lead to a formal qualification, some programmes include training or accredited awards. It can help build confidence, develop communication and teamwork skills, strengthen future applications and provide valuable insight into different careers and industries.
