There’s more to University than just lectures, libraries and sit-down learning. NUSU’s Go Volunteer team aims to make sure you get the most out of your time at Newcastle University through their volunteering opportunities. Go Volunteer allows you to develop the skills future employers look for, supplement your degree course, help the local community and make new friends.
