LMC Volunteers!
We offer a one-stop shop that provides information on regular and one-off volunteering opportunities in the local community. Volunteering is an excellent way to gain new experiences, meet new people, increase confidence, and all whilst doing something worthwhile that benefits others.
Gap Years and Careers Breaks
We offer advice and guidance to staff and students on the wide range of opportunities available in a gap year or career break. Opportunities range from a few weeks to a few years, and include paid work, volunteering, travel and learning in the UK and abroad. They are great for people wanting a new experience away from home.
