Description
Thanks to the generosity of Ellucian, we are awarding £500 each to two students who have made significant contributions through volunteering this year (since July 2025).
We would be delighted if you could join us to celebrate the difference students have made in our local community and hear the impact volunteering has had on their studies, career pathways, and personal growth.
We will also be joined by students who have completed the Professional Volunteering scheme this year so they can showcase their work.
This will be a joyful and inspiring celebration!
Award nominations
Whether you’ve given a little time or a lot, if you have supported a cause you care about or made a difference in your local community – we want to hear your story! If you’ve volunteered this year, you’re exactly the kind of person who should apply.
You can nominate yourself for the award by completing our short application form. It’s a great opportunity to showcase your hard work and you might be awarded £500.
Applications are open from Monday 6 April to Monday 18 May.
