Description

Hey I'm Ashleigh, a Scottish girl passionate about animal welfare and interested in nature, reading, hiking and learning. And I looove card and board games. I am just home from a years trip where I visited South America (Peru, Ecuador and Colombia) and Africa (Kenya and South Africa). I have now returned to work in Scotland but would like to continue to find voluntary opportunities when I have time off work.
I am very adaptable and eager to learn and try just about anything – especially anything involving outdoors or helping animals in need. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty. I have so much to learn and so much dedication and commitment to give. I want to improve myself by learning new things and giving something back.
