She believes that we can find business opportunities all around us! Her book is available in the Ardkeen Quality Food Store and the Waterford Book Centre.</p><p>Offering time to a friend or neighbour, your local community centre or charity organisation can provide that refreshing break that you need right now! Remember that helping out, doing work experience or internships or simply doing something different, is not just about the learning and becoming good at what you do or want to do, it is also about people.</p><p>It is people who make us feel valued and respected. It is people who may one day give you a job lead, work with you in a business start-up, or they might recommend you to someone starting a business or already in business. So keeping out there talking to people, learning and sharing is important not just to you, but what you do and say can make a big difference to other people too!</p><p><a href="http://www.waterford-today.ie/waterford-lifestyle/22410-social-business-and-your-community-22410.html">Keep reading...</a></p>
