Volunteering for Newcastle University Students
Volunteering is a great way to get involved in the local community and develop new personal and professional skills.
Adding to your degree
The ncl+ initiative brings together groups across the University to offer you opportunities to make your time at university more valuable and attractive to employers.
The annual ncl+ Activity Awards recognise the achievements of students in a range of extra-curricular and societal activities.
