-
Being the Face & Voice of ACNEW: Answering phone calls politely, taking messages, and checking the answerphone to make sure our clients get the help they need.

Keeping Us Organized: Supporting the management team with daily admin, keeping track of office stock (leaflets, stationery, stamps), and helping with stock counts.
-
Tech & Data Management: Learning to use our specialized Charity Log database to record incoming referrals and keep client records up to date.
