Volunteer Stories

Life-changing journey of self-discovery and passion

As I pushed open the doors of Llandudno Museum & Gallery on that chilly November day in 2022, I had no idea how much my life was about to change. I had come in search of confidence, but what I found was a passion that ignited my soul.

Welcoming visitors, managing the front desk, and exploring the history of Church Walk filled me with a sense of purpose I had never experienced before.

I stumbled upon diamond painting – a form of art that spoke to my heart. Delving into this world, I honed my skills and discovered a talent I never knew I had. The museum embraced my passion, giving me a platform to share my knowledge through creative workshops that brought joy to visitors of all ages.

From seeking confidence to becoming a valued member of the museum community, my volunteer work has transformed me in ways I could never have imagined. The warmth and camaraderie I have found here have filled me with gratitude and purpose. This journey has not just changed my life – it has given me a new sense of purpose and a deep appreciation for the transformative power of volunteerism.

A Journey of Transformation Through Volunteering

As I walked through the doors of Llandudno Museum in 2023, I had no idea that I was about to embark on a journey that would change my life forever. At 26 years old, armed with a degree in 3D animation and games development, I lacked the confidence to fully pursue my career aspirations. But deep down, I knew that I was capable of so much more.

Volunteering at the museum provided me with a newfound sense of purpose and belonging. Engaging in tasks such as promoting events, organizing collections, and creating 3D models for digital tours allowed me to blend my technical skills with a passion for history. Despite facing challenges associated with autism, I viewed them as opportunities for personal growth. This journey, initiated as a quest for confidence and employment, has evolved into a tale of hope, dedication, and the transformative influence of giving back. I am eager to carry forward the lessons learned and relationships formed on this impactful journey.
