Ave It! Scheme
If you are on a club or society committee then the Ave It! scheme is here to recognise and reward the worthwhile work that you do for your activity.
Community Volunteer Programme
The UWE Community Volunteer Programme has landed in the Union…and we need you! We are looking for clubs and societies to get in the volunteering mood, and help us to run some spectacular events. It’s time to think about the Sports and Activities Awards too, so get some volunteering under your belt, and stand out from the crowd!
JUICE
The Joint University Initiative for Coach Education (JUICE) offers officiating and generic coach development courses such as child protection issues in a coaching environment, and offers some subsidies for those who use their new skills to volunteer in the community.
