Eilis McNicholl

BA Hons Psychology, Fourth year

I've been volunteering at the National Autistic Society since July.

I decided to volunteer to gain invaluable experience in the charity sector and to work with people with autism.

My experience was great, I was invited to a lot of branch online meetings to discuss any ideas we had for upcoming meetings such as arts and crafts. I also ran the online side of things such as the social media through Facebook, posting two engagement posts a week and attending to any emails the branch received.
