Staff volunteering

 Many staff participate in volunteering in their spare time on a personal basis.  There are many volunteering opportunities available that can provide excellent skills and experience to help with both personal and professional development.  Organisations offering volunteering opportunities can provide excellent training, and sometimes recognised qualifications, which may be extremely useful in helping to enhance your CV or to development your employability skills. 

The University recognises that it may be difficult for you to participate in training activities in relation to volunteering. You may be eligible through the Special Leave application with Human Resources to apply for leave to attend training courses with a voluntary organisation.   Please contact Peter Jefferson in Human Resources on p.jefferson@tees.ac.uk to find out more information.

If you'd like to know more about the opportunities on this site, would like to recommend an organisation with whom we might work, or have any other comments or queries, please feel free to contact us.
