Tutoring is so much more than simply helping a student with their homework. I have learned that being an outstanding tutor is synonymous with being a mentor. Tutors take on a responsibility in helping students enjoy their education. In doing so, a great deal of empathy is necessary to provide appropriate guidance. I find such joy when a parent tells me how their child looks up to me as a role model. So, I know a few, young people think I am cool.

My role consists of liaising with stakeholders, organising fundraisers and supporting the members of our dedicated team. Just like the rest of my team, I am fully committed to achieving Radio Lollipop’s mission. My commitment comes so easily as Radio Lollipop’s goals resonate deeply with my core value of compassion and my firsthand experiences in hospital. I couldn’t be prouder to lead a devoted team that never stops putting laughter and play in a place of pain.

Ensuring that Radio Lollipop can interact meaningfully with all children of differing ages and abilities is what my role as Play Co-ordinator involves. Doing this includes a range of tasks. To make our volunteers' lives easier I reorganised our play cupboards which made activities and crafts easy to access. I also sourced and purchased a range of games and restocked craft supplies to expand our options for play.

I also sourced and purchased a range of games and restocked craft supplies to expand our options for play. I lead the implementation of a badge maker which enables children to turn their drawings and paintings into a badge they can take home. Co-ordinating play at Radio Lollipop becomes extremely rewarding when I see my effort turn into a meaningful interaction with a child.
