Student Volunteering Week 2022

GOAL: to CELEBRATE VOLUNTEERING!

 
 
 

WHAT's student volunteering week?

It’s a national campaign that brings together educational institutions from all around the UK to organise a weeklong effort to raise awareness of volunteering and its benefits to students’ future careers.  Last year, over 60 institutions took part and we came first in the country with the number of events we organised and the number of hours our amazing volunteers logged!

This year, we want to make #SVW22 even bigger and better, so we've organised lots of one-off events, regular projects sessions and microvolunteering opportunities you can engage in! Student Volunteering Week is all about celebrating volunteering achievements, getting more people involved in volunteering and helping you identify your skills and potential.

The only thing you need is willingness to help others laugh
