Volunteer drop-in session

The Volunteer drop-in session has changed. We will now have office hours on  Mondays from 12 noon and 1pm and Wednesdays from 1pm and 2pm during semester time.

If you have any questions please use these times to come in and talk to us. At other times we can't guarantee that someone will be available to talk to you unless you have made an appointment beforehand.

Alternatively email your enquiry to volunteers@manchester.ac.uk. This is also the best way to contact us to make an appointment if you can't make office hours.
