Local Volunteering OpportunitiesSouthampton Hub work to create and connect students to great volunteering opportunities. Check out our current schemes below:
Schools Plus supports children to achieve their academic potential by matching them with university student tutors. Schools Plus provides training and support to develop university students' skills, their effectiveness as tutors and their understanding of educational disadvantage. It enables students at university to have a positive impact in their local schools. The Schools Plus projects are student run, with student coordinators. Please see the Schools Plus website to see how you can become a schools plus tutor.
