This is a great opportunity to gain insight into how community organisations operate, meet professionals working in the sector, and learn how volunteering can help you develop valuable skills and experience.

After the visit, we will walk back to campus together. If the walk might not work for you, email volunteering@uwe.ac.uk so we can work with you to find an alternative way for you to take part.
