What is a Community Partner?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

A Community Partner is a charity or organisation that has been connected to the University Volunteering Team. This connection starts by having a meeting a member of our team. If you would like to start a partnership with us, please visit our ‘Become a community partner<\/a>‘ page . During the meeting we will need to get a copy of your Public Liability Insurance (PLI) certificate and a volunteer risk assessment, digital copies are preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can Durham University Volunteering help your charity or organisation?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Durham University Volunteering works alongside over 2,000 staff and student volunteers every year. This allows us to advertise opportunities to a dedicate pool of enthusiastic volunteers who are keen to roll up their sleeves and get the task done. Whether you need 1 or two volunteers or groups of 50+ we can work with you to make sure your needs are met. We also host multiple events through out the year. By being a Community Partner, you will be invited to these events: for example Freshers Fair, Volunteer Fair, Greenspace Festival etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do we advertise volunteering opportunities suggested by Community Partners?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

All tasks are uploaded onto our Volunteer Portal. This enables us to closely monitor uptake. Once a date is set for the volunteering, we will then canvas the groups\/ departments. All volunteering opportunities for individuals will be uploaded to the Portal as well. We also have a newsletter that is sent out to staff and students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are just a few of our many amazing community partners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
