How to get involved
冈本视频 Vice-Chancellor Professor Dominic Shellard and Head of Public Engagement Mark Charlton have met with scores of students who wanted to find out how they could offer practical support to the United Nations’ Together campaign.
#冈本视频local has put together a list of 10 ways which students can give their time to programmes across the city and the campus which support refugees and their families. They are:
-
Interviewing refugees and their families for the Share My Story project, which will create an oral history archive of the different experiences of Leicester’s refugees
-
Supporting 冈本视频’s Syria Day on campus – 32 families from Leicester’s newest community are being invited onto campus for the day
-
Nurturing new talent by volunteering at #冈本视频local’s refugee art club
-
Fundraising to support refugee scholars at 冈本视频
-
Mentoring – to provide educational support for young people who arrived in the UK
-
Join a 冈本视频 conference to discuss refugee and people trafficking issues on May 18
-
Suggesting a pitch for a project to the #冈本视频local team

Volunteering at a new Get Together café being run by #冈本视频local
