What do our volunteers do?

Our volunteers are the beating heart of CSSC. They make everything we do possible and turn great ideas into fantastic trips, adventures and events.

You may meet some of our volunteers at our activities, as they’re often there in person to help coordinate, organise and ensure you have a great time. However, they also work tirelessly behind the scenes as well, making sure our events are safe, fun, engaging, well planned and go off without a hitch.

So, whether they’re working on site or behind the scenes, our volunteers are at the centre of everything we do.

Discover some of the fascinating and varied roles you could soon be taking up with us.

Benefits of volunteering

Both CSSC and our members benefit hugely from the time, effort and dedication our volunteers give to our events – but what do volunteers get in return?

Having fun

It provides so many opportunities to experience new things and have fun along the way. There’s a huge range of events and activities to choose from.

Building New Skills

Being a volunteer means that you can learn new and enhance existing skills, which are also useful and relevant for the workplace as a great way to boost your CV.

Improving your health

Volunteering can also improve your mental health and wellbeing. Studies show it reduces stress and depression and increases self-esteem and life satisfaction.

Making a Difference

CSSC is all about uniting members and inspiring them to explore, connect and realise their best self. By volunteering you can improve not only your experiences but make a huge difference to others too.
