Student led projects
We are here to help you put your ideas for projects, events and campaigns into reality. We are looking for projects that will benefit local Schools and Sixth Form Colleges, but will also consider ideas that benefit the wider community.
For more information on setting up your own Student Led Project come along to one of our Information Sessions on either:
- Monday 15 October 6 pm – 7 pm
- Wednesday 24 October 6 pm – 7 pm.
Both will be held in Newton LT10. At these sessions you will find out:
- the process of setting up your project
- how we will support you every step of the way
- how you can access funding to run it.
We are looking for some great ideas for projects, but remember you will need to get in quick! Make sure you have a look at the application timeline below so you can see the important dates. Don't be put off by the shortlisting and interviews. We just want to make sure we're funding the students with the best ideas. Your Volunteering Officer will guide you through the whole process.
All you need to do is email a Volunteering Officer for a project proposal form
