Our 2023 winners

The annual University Volunteer of the Year Awards took place in a face to face ceremony on 9th May 2023.  

Independent judges considered nominations that had been made earlier in the year for groups, alumni and students. The panel consisted staff, Students' Union and Alumni representation and partners from community organisations.

Volunteering took place locally, nationally and internationally. It really was humbling to hear about the amazing work of so many people.

All commended and highly commended nominees as well as those who ame first, second or third received a certificate. The overall winners in the individual categories also received the University Medal for Social Responsibility, part of the suite of established President's Distinguished Achievement Awards. First, second and third places also receive a donation to support the organisations where they volunteer.
