Today some of my year went to Tescos to do some fundraising for Pieta House. They are an amazing charity who help prevent suicide and self-harm. It is becoming more common nowadays so the work they do is becoming even more important to everybody, so I was glad to help out in anyway I could. We were to do 2 hour shifts each throughout the day. My shift was from 2pm-4pm, but I arrived at 1 anyway because I had the time to spare, and I wouldn't have been doing anything better. I was kind of shy packing peoples bags at first but once I got into the swing of it I really enjoyed it. I had to run into the shop to get things for customers once or twice because things were damaged, but I didn't mind. I met really nice people. People nowadays are still very generous and we raised a good bit of money. I would love to bag pack again during the year because it is a good way to raise money. I can feel my social skills improving with everything I do this year.
