With the support of the KCLSU Volunteer Coordinators, you can set up your own volunteering project. Whether you want to set up a series of wellbeing workshops for KCL students, support the homeless community in London, run a language class, or help students from a Widening Participation background apply to University, we're here to help.
Getting Started - get in touch!
Before you start organising your project and recruiting volunteers, you should get in touch with one of our Volunteering Coordinators for a meeting. Get in touch by emailing [email protected] or book a drop in with us here.
Getting Started - thinking about your idea
Before your appointment, you should try to begin filling out a Theory of Change template for your project idea. Don’t worry if you don’t know the answers to all of the sections, just make sure that you have included a summary of your project, and use the prompts to get thinking about what else you might need in place. During the meeting, we will talk more about what Theory of Change is, and help you to make sure all of the relevant safety measures are in place.
Please also review the Volunteering Policy for more information on how to run your project, and review our Volunteer Project Structures in preparation for your Project.
Getting Started - funding available
Our Volunteer Project Fund is here to help your ideas come to life. This fund typically opens in July/August and September/October.
