The Accidental Volunteer Society

A story of tea, chaos, and finding your purpose completely by mistake

De: Christopher Hall

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

The feel-good comedy about finding purpose in the most unlikely places.

Sam wasn’t looking for a cause.
She was just looking for a reason to get out of bed before midday.

One slightly soggy biscuit and a poorly considered Google search later, she finds herself deep in the strange and brilliant world of volunteering - from charity-shop chaos to emotional chihuahuas, bingo-night controversies to budget sheets covered in glitter.

But when she ropes in her equally unprepared friends - Jen, Mo, Tasha and Lee - something starts to happen. Something warm, wobbly, and wonderfully human.

Together, they create The Workshop Café: a ramshackle community space where people share what they know, show up for each other, and discover that even the smallest acts can ripple outwards.

This isn’t a guidebook. It’s not a plan.
It’s a very British kind of love story - about community, confidence, and what happens when you stop waiting to feel useful and just start.

Expect:

• Laugh-out-loud moments and heart-squeezing truths
• Big emotions, small actions, and endless cups of tea
• A story about friendship, purpose and ordinary people doing extraordinary things

From bestselling author Christopher Hall - creator of The Forget Me Not Chronicles - comes a funny, hopeful novel celebrating the chaos and kindness of volunteering.

No capes. No heroes. Just one kettle, five oddballs, and a whole lot of heart.
