Volunteering is a chance for you to gain experience in your area of work in a fun and rewarding way.
Leeds Trinity University's volunteering opportunities are built from established relationships with local, regional and national organisations.

Five great reasons to volunteer
- Become more employable - many student volunteers have gone on to work for the organisation they volunteered with.
- Make your CV stand out from the crowd - gaining experience in your chosen industry could increase your chance of securing a graduate-level role when you finish university.
- Develop your skillset - many great training opportunities are available whilst volunteering that you may not be able to access elsewhere.
- Boost your confidence and help you meet new people - gaining useful contacts for your future career.
- Get the opportunity to go abroad to some amazing destinations and experience a new culture.
