During March Basingstoke Voluntary Action (BVA) were invited to take part in Queen Mary’s College’s – Futures Fair 2024 to promote volunteering to the students.
BVA are on a mission to encourage younger people to volunteer, it is a fantastic chance for young people to gain a variety of skills beneficial to those applying for further education or internships and a standout attribute for those looking to go straight into the world of work.
The event was a great success, it was not only an opportunity for promotion for BVA, but a great opportunity to receive feedback from the students to help BVA’s mission moving forward.
For younger people thinking about volunteering there are a variety of opportunities for all different interests, just search Volunteer North Hants to see what opportunities are available in your local area.
