Milk It! (14/12/2026, 21:00)

Wed, 14 Oct 2026 11:29:13 +0100

Dancefloor bangers are at your doorstop. Sing your heart away to cheesy pop, word-for-word pop hits from the last two decades!

If you're lucky, maybe a surprise appearance from Daisy the Cow? Who knows. It's Milk It after all!

Your safety is our priority.

Here’s what’s in place every night:

Drink toppers and spiking test kits available from the bar.
Trained staff and security who know what to do if spiking is suspected.
Ask for Angela – a discreet way to get help if you feel unsafe.
Welfare Assistants on hand during big nights out.
CCTV and venue patrols for added safety.

If you ever feel uncomfortable, talk to any staff member – we’ll listen, no judgment.

Don’t be a prick. Spiking is a crime.

Spiking isn’t a prank. It’s assault.
If someone spikes a drink, a vape, or uses a needle, that’s a criminal offence. Full stop.

If you’ve been spiked, it’s not your fault – ever.
We’ll take it seriously, and we’ll help you get safe and supported.

MORE INFO ABOUT VOLUNTEERING AT THE ZOO:

People who sign up to volunteer at Colchester Zoo will contribute their time to help us achieve our goals of furthering understanding and respect for nature and contributing towards wildlife conservation. Volunteers will spend their day out in the park talking to visitors directly and using props, activities, and games to teach a variety of topics from animal care and welfare to conservation and the illegal wildlife trade. Engagement with volunteers should give visitors a deeper appreciation for nature and the knowledge of the actions they can take to benefit wildlife both locally and in the wider world.

Volunteers can expect public engagement and prop use training as well as demonstrations of all the activities they will be running from experienced educators. This scheme is a great way to build knowledge, personal confidence, and social skills as well offering the chance to experience the daily workings of a modern zoo. At all times volunteers will be supported by the Colchester Zoo education team who will be on hand to help them get the most out of their time at the zoo.

No prior knowledge of animals or conservation is needed! Just plenty of enthusiasm, the desire to learn new things, and the willingness to work as part of a vibrant team.

Wed, 12 Aug 2026 16:33:35 +0100

SU MAKES: Pages sessions are exclusively for the existing journalling community*. They’re based on the idea of Morning Pages - a daily practice of writing in a stream-of-consciousness/ brain-dump way.

Writing regularly in this way is enormously beneficial to your wellbeing; it’s a judgment-free opportunity to get your thoughts down on paper and cleared from your mind. You’ll find solutions to problems naturally, process emotions, gain comfort with writing, and learn to silence your inner critic.

As with all of our Makes, this is a zero-pressure moment to enjoy – all you need to do is: don’t think too hard and just write.

* If you don’t already have a journal with us, look out for the next SU MAKES: Journals session at the end of every month when you can pick up your own book and begin to make it truly your own.

Fri, 25 Sep 2026 11:34:23 +0100

RTP volunteers teach English to the refugees and asylum seekers in Colchester. You don't need any qualifications and the only language you must be proficient in is English.

Volunteers at our Tuesday and Thursday sessions are teaching assistants to the teachers. You may be supporting a group of students or leading a smaller group who need individual support. At our Monday sessions, you'll help plan sessions and deliver the content.

RTP makes a massive positive difference to the local community and by taking part, you will be actively helping people, who were forced to leave their homes, make a life for themselves here.

Register here to find out how to book onto sessions.

Tuesday and Thursday Sessions run from 9:50 am -12:45 pm including travel times. Travel is covered by VTeam.

Monday Sessions run from 11:00 am - 1:30 pm including travel times. Travel is covered by VTeam.

Please note that, after you register, the process of onboarding you to be ready to volunteer with the project may take several days. This is because we'll need to reach out to you with our volunteering agreement, which you will need to accept, and a link to safeguarding training, which you will need to complete. We'd therefore suggest you register ASAP, to be able to book yourself onto as many Refugee Teaching Programme sessions as possible :)

Join us for a chill time in The Atrium.

We’ll have a quiet night in – you can get to know other people who like the gentler side of life or keep to yourself – there’s no expectations or pressure here.

You’ll find some optional icebreakers & activities to take part in if you’d like (board games, simple things to make) and drinks & snacks – join in or don’t, no worries 🖤

You can stay as long as you want to and leave whenever you’re ready.
