"By promoting volunteering as good for your health, self-esteem or bank balance, the government sells it short. 2005 is the Year of the Volunteer - and if you listen to the UK government, altruism has never been so good for you. Feeling a little low after the return to work? Still haven't got around to joining the gym? Need to lose a bit of weight, or gain a few pounds of self-esteem? Then volunteering is for you."
