Testimonials
Lama Al-Khouja
Twenty-three -year-old Lama Al-Khouja, a SOAS Law graduate, saw us on the internet.She says:
"I discovered Enfield CAB's "v Volunteering Course" through a Gumtree search for law-related work experience. I immediately got in touch with Mr Oakes, Enfield's course organiser and was happy to be welcomed to join the group and take part in the training."
" Speaking from a law student's perspective, the training was really relevant, the information provided was very useful, the workshops were excellent , and the balance struck between professional training and soft skills was great."
"As a result of attending the course,I was offered a voluntary work placement doing social policy work with Enfield CAB one day a week. And I was also able to use everything I learned during the training to get a paid position with Mutual Gains, a not-for-profit organization which specializes in getting jobs for graduates."
"I really recommend Enfield CAB's course to anyone who wants more insight into the whole field of social welfare and the workings of the law in this area. But it also helps you acquire personal presentational skills which are useful in a wide variety of jobs."
