University volunteering opportunities 29
Your alma mater needs you!
“I have always felt passionately about the University and being able to share my experiences with prospective students means they can be of benefit to someone else.” Lewis Young, Surrey alumnus and UK Volunteer of the Year (Vice-Chancellor’s Alumni Awards 2016)
Lewis is one of hundreds of people who in the last year have donated more than 2,000 hours to benefit Surrey students through the University’s Volunteering Programme.
Our volunteers come from a diverse range of backgrounds and disciplines, hold a variety of skills and are at different career stages. Their common ground is a shared desire and enthusiasm to work together to really make a difference to the University of Surrey community.
If you’d like to volunteer we have a wide variety of roles so you can find something that’s the perfect fit for you.

Become an ambassador
Our alumni ambassadors are invaluable at University Open Days and applicant events, particularly at our international receptions, giving prospective students a flavour of what it’s like to study at Surrey. It takes just a few hours but makes a big impact.
Being an Open Day ambassador is one of the volunteering opportunities available Organise a reunion
Stay in touch with old classmates and help organise a reunion. If you would like guidance from the alumni team please read our alumni reunion guides at
