If you’ve never volunteered before, but you’ve been thinking about getting involved, now is the time! Volunteering is easier than you may think.
You give your time to do something useful and in return you get a challenging, rewarding and enriching experience with the satisfaction of time and effort well spent. The range of opportunities is huge.
Whatever your skills and experience, there is something that will fit with your interests and your schedule. Contact your volunteering team in your University, students’ union or College to get started.
If you’re already a volunteering superstar – well done! We want to know what you’ve been up to so why not send us a picture of you volunteering to our photo competition.
Don’t forget as well as an amazing experience volunteering is really good for your personal development. Volunteering can take you a long way – have a look at these five wonderful students who are on our shortlist as the very best student volunteers across the UK. Maybe that could be you next year?
