Now in its tenth year, Student Volunteering Week brings organisations from all sectors together to celebrate volunteering by people in Further and Higher Education. As England's largest volunteering database, Do-it is proud to support the efforts made by student volunteers, and hopes this week will inspire more students across the UK to get involved. 

Hosted by Volunteering England, the week provides a platform for student volunteers to connect with their community and actively engage at a local level.

Chief Executive at Do-it host YouthNet Fiona Dawe OBE says:

'Volunteering can be a great way boost career prospects and gain new skills. We hope students across the country will take the week as an opportunity to experience new things, meet new people, and have some fun while giving their time to a good cause.'

Follow us on Twitter and tweet us about your activities – we want to hear about what you're up to:
