Student Volunteering Week

Student Volunteering Week is a national week, led by the Student Volunteering Network, that takes place across the UK. Universities and schools across the country step up to take part in the week, organising opportunities or events to encourage their students to volunteer and help their local communities.

Student Volunteering Week celebrates student volunteering in the following ways:

  1. Improves student wellbeing
  2. Develops students’ employability
  3. Contributes positively to the wider and local community life

To find out more about what students all over the country are up to, make sure to follow the Student Volunteering Week social media channels on Twitter and Instagram, and tag us to share your stories. 

Our national team, led by the Student Volunteering Network, will be available to offer help to you in running your SVW activities, before, during and after the week.

The next Student Volunteering Week takes place between 12th to 18th February 2024 – save the date now!

If you wish to connect to likeminded volunteer managers across your region or even nationally, make sure that you have signed up to the Student Volunteering Network – both nationally and regionally. You can find your regional contact details here.
