A few years ago, Megan Sarl tried to give up her volunteer work with Childline. It didn't quite work out.
"Three or four years ago I went to give it up because I was busy with work," the 27-year-old from Cork city explains. "And it came to the day of the last shift and I said 'you know, I can't do it'."
