Community Support Volunteers (COVID)

Community Support Volunteers are student volunteers, who have agreed to offer support for students and the local community where needed during the ongoing global pandemic.

This could be assisting individuals in your local area with befriending to help reduce loneliness or isolation by phone, email or online video chat, making doorstep deliveries of shopping or medication for those isolating, as well as generally being a point of contact for those that might need support.

You’ll have a desire to help others in your community with enthusiasm and a friendly face, while being willing to wear PPE where required.

Our aim is to build up a bank of volunteers, so that should they be needed, or tighter government restrictions be applied, we are best placed to deploy them to support students and the wider community.
