Corporate responsibility / team challenges vinvolved - volunteering for 16 to 24 year-olds
|
What is vinvolved?
vinvolved is a UK-wide initiative aimed at 16 to 24 year-olds who want to volunteer their time for the benefit of others. It's a way to try out new things that help you and your town. vinvolved gives you the chance to get out and about, try out new things or build on your existing interests, skills and talents. vinvolved even offers a national award for volunteering, recognised by colleges, universities and employers - an added bonus for your CV.
Why should I be a vinvolved Volunteer?
... because it'll look great on your CV. Colleges, universities and employers love to see a vinvolved award on your CV - it really makes you stand out from the crowd. ... because loads of people are doing it. It's a great way of having fun, getting to do the things you really want to do, and meeting loads of new people. ... because volunteering is not all about helping people across the street. Fancy dj-ing at a club? Running a football team? Designing a web site? Working in the theatre? There's loads of different things you can do - on your own or with your friends. ... because it'll help your community. It's your town and you're the one that's got to live in it, so why not start making it a better place to live?
