Dear Manager's Adams, I hope
this
 letter finds you well. I am writing to inform you of my decision to step back from my voluntary work at your company. It has been a fulfilling experience being part of
this
 organization and contributing to our local community.
However
, to explain why you can no longer continue your voluntary work -
for example
, personal commitments, health reasons, or changes in work schedule .I find myself in a position where I am unable to dedicate the time and energy required to fulfil my responsibilities effectively. I will be happy to assist with the transition period and provide any necessary information or guidance to ensure a smooth handover process to the new volunteer. Thank you for understanding my situation, and please do not hesitate to reach out if you need any

Task Achievement
To improve your task achievement, ensure that you explicitly state the reasons you can no longer continue your voluntary work. While you've mentioned personal commitments, health reasons, or changes in work schedule, integrating a specific explanation would provide a more complete response.
Coherence and Cohesion
Regarding coherence and cohesion, your letter demonstrates a clear structure; however, enhancing transitional phrases between paragraphs could strengthen the logical flow. Additionally, adjust the greeting for formality and correctness ('Dear Manager Adams' instead of 'Dear Manager's Adams').

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.
