Welcome to the Volunteering Services Unit
The VSU is the Union's dedicated facility for students who want to get involved with volunteering projects in the local community. You can give as much or as little time as you can spare; learning new skills, making friends, and contributing to other peoples' lives.
200 Projects to choose from!
Whatever you're interested in, we've got a project for you. Plus, travel expenses are paid to all of our volunteers, so volunteering is one student activity that won't leave you out of pocket. Click on our Project Directory to find out more.
The Innovations Programme
If you have an idea for a project that could have an effect on the local community, why not create it yourself? Or you could develop your leadership and organisational skills by taking on one of our existing projects. Find out more
