My Volunteer Experience - Alexander Bull

Alexander Bull
Alex has been a volunteer with Connecting up since 30 September 2019. He has a Bachelors degree in Social Sciences from the University of Adelaide and a Certificate II in Business Administration from TAFESA. He is passionate about social and cultural issues, particularly those that effect the most vulnerable in society. Alex has previously volunteered for other organisations, such as Anglicare and JFA Purple Orange, and worked in the printing industry.
 
He joined Connecting up to gain experience, and enjoys developing his skills and practical knowledge, in a way that positively contributes to the community. Alex gained part-time work with a nursing and disability services provider in 2020 and has continued to volunteer remotely around his commitments in 2021 undertaking large information management projects on specific services that have been needed to standardise and improve the directory.

In 2023 he returned to Connecting Up, volunteering remotely to update records for SAcommunity and we greatly appreciate his help again in information management projects. Alexander has always been very supportive of the program and in online meetings has always spoken very positively of his experiences which has helped improve confidence for our newer volunteers.

This year Alexander has been improving and correcting data fields such as councils and electorates as part of the Information Management Team with Volunteer Rex Porter. We congratulate Alexander on transitioning into part-time work in November with a construction company, and thank him for continuing to volunteer with us outside his commitments.

Thank you Alexander
