Initial reaction
I had become increasingly aware of the work of Kainos through a number of friends who spoke of their role as volunteers. Upon being invited to become involved I was initially hesitant, however without doubt it is one of the best things that I have ever been involved with.

My only regret was that I had not done this earlier
A year ago I went to my first Social Development Evening. Driving home afterwards, my only regret was that I had not attended years before. Each week there is always a warm welcome awaiting the volunteers and finding topics of conversation is never a problem. It is a privilege to be able to discuss matters ranging from soccer and the wonders of outer space to bottle collecting and holidays in Mongolia!
