Volunteering shows determination to succeed.

There are many different ways you can volunteer, and thousands of opportunities.

Although mostly unpaid, some voluntary jobs can be part-time, allowing you to work alongside a voluntary position, and others offer travel expenses.

There are lots of official volunteering organisations such as Engage Renfrewshire, or the Duke of Edinburgh awards scheme. And many local groups and organisations will require volunteers, such as Fairtrade stores, activity groups and local charities.
