We support UCL students to develop and run community outreach projects. We support individual students, clubs, societies and student groups unaffiliated with the Students' Union to develop their projects.
We provide project management training, support from an advisor and some groups can apply for up to £300 to help with running costs.

In order to register with the Student-Led Volunteering Programme, you must fulfil the following requirements: -
