Alright, over the past week or so I have:
1. Become a member of all of the organisations listed below.
2. Been in contact with DAN about volunteering and now need to decide in what capacity I would like to become involved in the group.
3. Emailed both AI and the UNAA about some of their campaigns which interest me. I am still waiting to hear back from both associations.
4. Started talking to my friends and family more frequently and in depth about what I'm doing.
The main obstacle I've encountered so far has been work. I've finished uni and am currently looking for a full-time job, so despite really wanting to become more active, I'm not sure how much time, and which times, I will actually be able to commit to these causes and/ or organisations in the future.
This is so disappointing and frustrating - especially because I used to dwindle away so much time at uni! Hopefully I will get this situation under control soon though, and be able to figure out when and where I can contribute regularly in my local community.
