Volunteering with Physical Limitations: Seeking Advice

I'm in NHS, which has 15 required hours of community service. I'm worried about doing volunteer work, as I can't stand up for very long without feeling pain. Are there any volunteer programs that won't have too much physical strain?

Hey! I know of this website called justserv and it has a ton of service opportunities that it lists for people . They have a bunch of different kind of services some that are more physical but other kinds of service like helping tutoring or writing letters to military service people. https://www.justserve.org/ There is also a service group called the Linus Project and you can just go on their website and they have the instructions on how to make the blankets. The blankets are for infants in the NICU and in the hospital. You are just tying fabric together so it is really easy! I'm not crafty and I have been able to make them in the past. https://www.projectlinus.org/ I hope these are helpful! I
