V.exciting new volunteer project

More than 55 organisations turned up last week (24 October) for the biggest-ever Volunteers Fair to be held on campus. Organisations as diverse as east Brighton's eb4u regeneration scheme, Travellers volunteer abroad programme and our very own Gardner Arts Centre attended, eager to sign up new students.
