Updated 3rd June

The first ever Volunteer Festival (7th - 11th June) is now open for Booking!  Places are limited for some events, so book today and don't miss out!  Everyone who takes part gets a free t-shirt and a voucher for the final day party at Revolutions on Friday!

Get On-Board for Gardening

Monday 7th June: 10am – 12pm  SORRY - FULLY BOOKED

Friday 11th June: 10am – 12pm - LAST FEW PLACES REMAINING

People living near OldfieldPark are very proud of their railway station.  A small but dedicated team known as On-Board regularly sow, rake, weed and mow the areas behind the platforms on a regular basis.  This year they are entering the station into the prestigious Bath in Bloom competition.   They’d love us to help out with the preparations.  Tasks will include cutting back grass and weeding.  Tidy up the local area and have a natter to the neighbours!  We’ll shout you lunch afterwards at Matty’s on Lower Bristol RoadBook now!

Beach-clean at Redcliff Bay

Tuesday 8th June: 10.30am – 12.30pm - SORRY - FULLY BOOKED

Do your bit to keep the protect wildlife and keep the South West’s beaches clean.  Every year thousands of birds and marine mammals die from ingesting rubbish in the sea.  With the National Trust, we’ll be removing these hazards from beach before they get back in the water – obviously it’s also going to make the Bay much nicer for people too!  Book now!

Meet the animals at Bath City Farm

Wednesday 9th June: 10am - 3pm  - LAST FEW PLACES REMAINING

We’ll be carrying out a range of practical tasks around the farm to help keep the animals in the best surroundings possible.  There’ll be plenty of time to meet the new piglets and the goats and sheep are very friendly!  Book now!

Painting and Decorating at Hillside Community Centre, Bath 

Thursday 10th June: 9am – 4pm - SORRY -  FULLY BOOKED

Hillside Community Centre is used by people all over South Bath, and it’s now in need of a bit of a face-lift.   We’ll be working with staff from the council to prepare and paint the walls.  It’s a chance to perfect your decorating techniques or learn some new DIY skills: No experience needed.  

I need to cancel: what do I do?

Not to worry if you can’t make an event you’ve booked on.  But, please let me know at justv@bathspa.ac.uk as soon as possible – there may be others who can take your place; and if we have an accurate idea of numbers it helps plan the tasks on the day.

Have a great day!

Got a passion for fashion?

Barnardos are looking for helpers for their Oldfield Park shop.  Tasks will include arranging displays, selecting and pricing the stock, helping customers, ordering and cash handling.  This is a great opportunity to use your creative flair and/or just do something useful to help raise money and awareness for a national children's charity.  They'd like you to help out for at least a month and you can do as many or as few hours as you like, at times to be agreed between you and the shop manager.  Simply download the application form and hand it in with 2 references to Jane Langley, Shop Manager, at the store at 30 Shaftesbury Road, Oldfield Park.

Be a role positive model...

The Black Families Education Support Group run a regular supplementary school which aims to positively impact on the educational achievement of Black and Minority young people aged between 13 and 16.  Lessons are focused on issues around Black and Minority Ethnic cultures and histories through creative and fun techniques, whilst enabling young people to gain a qualification equivalent to a GCSE.  Activities include graffiti, filming, internet radio, dance and drama workshops.

Volunteers are desperately needed to help run the sessions.  You'll need to commit to help out for a block of 5 consecutive Saturdays between 10.45 and 1.15 during school term time.  This is so that you get to know the young people and can build trust and rapport.  The school is running a trip to the South of France in August, and you may also be able to volunteer to support this too.

Please register your interest and we'll contact you with further details.
