VOLUNTEER WORK
In April 2020 she and fellow Polish speed skater Natalia Czerwonka began working as volunteers to help the elderly and those at high risk in Lubin, Poland, during the COVID-19 pandemic. "I joined the volunteer project organised by the city hall of Lubin. We supported people at higher risk and seniors, doing for them grocery shopping, taking out the garbage, walking their dogs. This kind of altruistic movement makes you realise what is most important in life." (przegladsportowy.pl, 15 Dec 2020)
