Lis Duffy
Volunteering Role: Tai Chi Instructor
Why did you want to volunteer with Age Cymru?
As soon as I saw the appeal on the Age Cymru facebook page for people to learn how to deliver Tai Chi sessions, I wanted to volunteer immediately. I had been worrying over how unfit I was and not able to do any kind of consistent fitness regime. I had enjoyed learning tai chi many years ago and I thought it was the ideal solution.

I would tell prospective volunteers that there are always gains by volunteering. By doing something for something else you gain on a personal level every time.
