National Volunteers Week

To celebrate National Volunteers Week, on Tuesday 4th June we welcomed various local organisations to speak with our staff and students about volunteering. 

At the event, we had representatives from St Helena’s Hospice, First Site, Community 360, Re-cycle, Essex Library Services, Essex Youth Service and Open Road.  

They provided information on the variety of amazing opportunities currently available. They highlighted the benefits of volunteering which include, making a difference, skill development, network building, personal growth, and health benefits.
