Duties

As a Sunshine Volunteer you will:

  • Extend the reputation of Sunshine Action UK at your institution by creating and leading a society/club
  • Create and lead your own unique projects, working with the Head of Events, including running Fortune Bag events where food is distributed to low-income families and the homeless
  • Learn more about the workings of our charity organisation 
Training
Volunteers in this role will receive as much guidance and support necessary to be successful in the role. We understand that students may not be strong in all of the skills that we look for, but we are happy to train anybody who are passionate about our cause.

Time commitment

Sunshine Volunteers work closely with our organisation, so while it is quite flexible we do require consistent involvement. Sunshine Action values long term commitment as we believe that the network we create will be useful in the future to all of our volunteers.

This organisation is one of our community partner organisations.

Like all volunteer recruiters we work with, they have signed up to our service standards, agreeing to abide by our policy on partnership working to keep you safe and supported whilst you volunteer.

You’ll never be out of pocket for volunteering through us – with in-London travel expenses to and from your volunteering guaranteed.

In addition, the team here at Students’ Union UCL Volunteering Service is here to support you throughout your volunteering journey – you can get in touch with us at any time.
