Give volunteering a go this year and boost your wellbeing as well as your CV skills
Build Skills, Boost Wellbeing, Make a Difference!
Student Volunteering Week takes place Monday 10 February to Sunday 16 February 2025 and the perfect opportunity to find out about all the benefits that volunteering brings.
Bath offers so many different ways to get involved no matter what your cause or passion, and the amazing friends you’ll make along the way mean that the time spent volunteering will be one of your best experiences at university.
Volunteering is something that everyone can get involved in!
MONDAY 10 FEBRUARY
If you’re looking to do volunteering but don’t know where to start, have a look at the SU Bath Volunteering Portal. Here you will find opportunities from charities, community groups, and student-led groups which you can sign up for.
If you’re passionate about fundraising for charity, the SU’s Fundraising area and Raise and Give (RAG) team is the place to go. This area has it all – hitch hikes, sports tournaments, craft sessions and the the occasional glamorous ball. All the money raised goes to charities that are important to students and help the local community.
Each day during Student Volunteer Week we are highlighting a 'Volunteer opportunity of the day' showing the range of current roles you can get involved in straight away!
