For the past year, Finn, 13, has given 370 hours of his spare time to helping The Killie Community. He gives up his school holidays in order to work with children younger than him at camps, providing them with special memories that will last a lifetime.
๐ค Today, some of our ๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฒ๐๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ participants took on their first ever interviews with local employers & club sponsors.
๐ฃ "The feedback was great and my confidence doing interviews has grown massively today. I feel more ready to apply and hopefully get a job."
