Vanessa Laspe

VOLUNTEER

My name is Vanessa and I am a science journalist from Germany. I’ve been together with Nina Wegner at CRP with the German ASA-programme for three months. Our project was to develop the official CRP website and it’s social media activities. Working at CRP was different for me as I was one of the few volunteers who have no actual therapy background. I really enjoyed working in the publications- and IT-department because I found out a lot about CRP and it’s great work from first hand because we talked to many people to get information for our work. I also worked with CRP’s photo- and videographer as I have some experience in photography and video production.

I really enjoyed my stay at CRP and working closely together with CRP staff because everybody at CRP is so welcoming, friendly and helpful. I find it a great experience and I’ve learned a lot from it.
