Making a Difference Together
Student Volunteering Week is Monday 9 to Sunday 15 February 2026 and is the perfect opportunity to find out about all the benefits that volunteering brings.
Bath offers so many different ways to get involved no matter what your cause or passion, and the amazing friends you’ll make along the way mean that the time spent volunteering will be one of your best experiences at university.
Volunteering is something that everyone can get involved in. Take a look at what's on this week or look through our current volunteering opportunities with local charities and organisations.
Whats on?
WEDNESDAY 11 FEBRUARY
Dough Bros pizza making and unwind session for men (Free event)
Dough Bros Returns!
Dough Bros is more than just a pizza-making event, it's a laid-back space for men to unwind, connect, and learn a new skill. Forget the pressure of sports clubs or formal meetups; this is all about getting your hands dirty (with flour!) and enjoying the simple pleasure of crafting your own pizza. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a complete kitchen novice, it's about coming together, having a laugh and boosting your well-being in a relaxed, supportive setting.
Esther Parkin Room, 16:00-18:30
