What is Give it a Go?

Fancy volunteering but don't have the time? Or perhaps you're not sure where to start?

Give It a Go provides you with an easy way to make a positive difference in your local community, alongside your studies and other commitments. We have all sorts on offer every month, from painting community spaces or sorting donations at a local homelessness shelter, to socialising with older people or helping out at community events.
