Your local hospital has advertised for people to do unpaid work helping at the hospitsal. You would like to do some work at the hospital in your free time. Write a letter to the hospital. In your letter -explain why you would like to do unpaid work at the hospital -say what type of unpaid work you would be able to do -give details of when you would be available for this work
I write to inform you that I am interested in the opening opportunity available at the hospital you manage, to
work
without being paid. I am aware that there is a need for more staff to help out in the hospital. I am willing to work
voluntarily because I see the need , and also
to be able to give back to the community.
I will like to work
in the administrative department and this
is because I have enough experience in the field and ensure the smooth running of the administrative aspect of the hospital.
Additionally
, I will be available to work
on Tuesdays and Thursdays between the hours of 9am to 2pm. This
is because I have another engagement in the evening and every other day. Although
some of my Saturdays are free, I will call the office a day before my availability to work
on Saturdays within the same hours.
In conclusion, I look forward to working voluntarily at the hospital and giving my quota of help to the hospital.
Yours Faithfully,
Mariam OmoleSubmitted by omolefeyikemi on

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
