Student Volunteering
The College’s thriving Charities Committee is a group of pro-active individuals with a strong social conscience. They are led by a smaller group of students and the whole committee meet on a weekly basis to discuss possible fundraising ideas and charities to support.
The Committee try to organise at least one event per half-term and support both national and local charities. They always welcome new members and encourage students to put their ideas forward for causes that are especially close to their hearts.
Last year, students raised more than two and a half thousand pounds for a number of good causes including, Macmillan Cancer Support, Children in Need, the British Heart Foundation and Salvation Army, to name just a few.
Students also have the opportunity to volunteer as a library mentor during their study periods.
Reading Mentor Scheme
Opportunities are available to work with local school children, from Kingsmead Primary School, as part of the College鈥檚 Reading Mentor scheme.聽 Students work one-to-one with children across all year groups, helping them to develop essential reading and comprehension skills. Students may also be asked to work in the classroom as learning mentors on occasions, for example in maths or literacy.
This is a great opportunity for those considering careers in teaching, psychology, and health and social care to name a few and can also be used to fulfil the volunteering element of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Silver or Gold Award. Students will receive full training and will be required to apply for a DBS certificate (paid for by the College).
