She loves her volunteering role within soroptimists and explains her most recent role here\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI joined in 2016 and have had various roles within the club. This year, I have volunteered to be the Programme Action Group Officer for the club and to co-ordinate all the projects that the club do. Our main project headings are International projects, Violence Against Women, Planet\/Environment. Within those main groups, there are several projects that the club members undertake. We also have a very strong Lobbying, Advocacy and Research co-ordinator who is very active: currently we are lobbying for the Istanbul Convention to be ratified by the UK and for the Domestic Abuse Bill to become a law.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Like many of the other club members, I joined the Soroptimists because I wanted to make a difference not only locally but also internationally. I also wanted to be part of a more powerful non-governmental organisation to have a bigger impact.<\/p>\n<p>When I joined the Soroptimist Bournemouth Club, I felt at home straight away, as it has a very welcoming, friendly and kind group of ladies. I also felt that whatever I could contribute would be gratefully received so there was no pressure and there has never been any pressure on me to do anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to know more about volunteering with Soroptimists then join us at a meeting to see what we do, please contact us at sigbibournemouth@hotmail.co.uk and or visit our website at <a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bournemouth\/\">https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bournemouth\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bournemouth Soroptimist, Nathalie Sherring, is the Chief Officer of a local charity called Dorset Race&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":362,"featured_media":4640,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-how-we-inspire-action-and-transform-lives","category-latest-news-from-our-fantastic-club"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Grabbing Exciting Opportunities as a Soroptimist Volunteer | News | Blog | Events | SI Bournemouth<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Bournemouth : Blog &amp; News : Grabbing Exciting Opportunities as a Soroptimist Volunteer : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Bournemouth .
