Volunteering offers many of the same social benefits, with the added bonus of helping
others and developing useful skills to put on your CV. Plus, students are in a unique position to
help, suggests Tom Fox. "They can take their enthusiasm and excitement for opportunities and
share their passions, subject knowledge and experience with people." The idea of giving up time
for nothing might seem impractical at first, especially once the pressures of study and coursework
or exams begin to mount up. However, Michelle Wright, CEO of charity support organization
Cause4, suggests seeing volunteering as a two-way street. "I think it is fine for undergraduates to
approach volunteering as a symbiotic relationship where doing good is just one part of the
motivation for reaching personal and professional goals."
Katerina Rudiger, head of skills and policy campaigns at the Chartered Institute of
Personnel and Development (CIPD), says: "Volunteering can be a valuable way of gaining that

experience, as well as building confidence, broadening your horizons, becoming a better team
player and developing those all- important 'employability skills' such as communication and
decision making." Amanda Haig, graduate HR manager, agrees that volunteering can help your
employment prospects. "Volunteering can demonstrate positive personality traits and skill sets,
such as proactivity, and teamwork," she says.
A positive side-effect of volunteering is improving your time at university by getting
involved in the local community. Leaving the student bubble can make your time as an
undergraduate much more varied. At Bath Spa University, more than 1,000 students volunteered
over the past year, doing everything from working on local environmental projects to helping in
schools or assisting the elderly. ”Quite often there can be a divide between students and
permanent residents," says students' union president Amy Dawson, "but if students invest a little
time now, they will be giving something back to the local community and will reap the benefits in
the future."
“You might also find that volunteering helps your studies if you choose the right program.
At Lancaster, volunteering is linked into academic modules in some cases", explains Fox. "This
has multiple wins. Students get to apply their learning in the classroom and share their interests
with children in local schools or community organizations, while schools gain skilled students
with a passion for a subject that enthuses their pupils."
