Azeb comes from Eritrea and she has lived in Sheffield about three years. She has two children.
Azeb studied dentistry in her country but now she is studying English in the Vestry Hall in Burngreave. She works as a volunteer for homeless people. She started after she saw people sitting around the church a woman worked there told Azeb about them, ‘Those are homeless people and we give them a breakfast every Sunday and that’s why they come here every week’.
Azeb decided to help them and she started doing voluntary work in the church. It is not the first time she has worked as a volunteer Azeb told me she used to work as a volunteer in her country about twenty years ago when famine and drought struck.
Azeb is a kind person and she said
“I like to help people and I have something pushing me to be helpful”.
Azeb would like to improve her English and to be a dentist in the UK and she hopes to continue her voluntary work.
