Bath V Team 

Bath V Team is one of our largest student-led groups. They organise volunteering projects around the community, working with a variety of charities and causes. 

Vision: The University of Bath has a culture of volunteering, enabling students to engage with meaningful student-led opportunities to contribute to their local community.

Aim: Build relationships between students and residents through compassionate, inclusive and sustainable projects that focus on improving the lives of those around us. 

What this means for you as a partner?  
We are looking for opportunities for students to run a community project with you. It needs to be something that a student can have a lead on with some autonomy but still working closely with you as well as capacity for 5+ volunteers to help each time it runs. To discuss how we can work together, please get in touch with volunteers@bath.ac.uk.  

Examples of student led projects

Bath V Team – V Code
Working with Mighty Girls, Bath V Team run a weekly coding club for girls, aiming to inspire them to have a future career in STEM.

 

RAG (Raise & Give) Student Fundraising 

All student-led fundraising goes through RAG (Raise and Give). They support students with advice, guidance and legal processes. RAG have several ways they can work with you through the year;
