Can I put it on my CV?

For our Publicity Team volunteers, you can go right ahead and put it on your CV!

However, for our Call-Takers, it’s a little different. Volunteering as a call-taker for Nightline isn’t the flashiest of responsibilities – the nature of the service means that often the work we do goes unseen. We make sure our volunteers are fully supported and appreciated – however, we would ask that you don’t make your involvement with the service public until after you have left and are no longer volunteering for us. This is to make sure we can protect our core principles of anonymity and confidentiality!

Volunteer with our Publicity Team

We are always looking for enthusiastic and innovative students to help us publicise Lancaster Nightline across campus, and bring the service to the forefront of student life!

This role is non-anonymous, and is about increasing Nightline’s presence on campus and student awareness of Lancaster Nightline’s valuable service. The main responsibility of the role is to keep the Lancaster Nightline name known within the University Campus; this will be achieved by working as a team to invent novel techniques to publicise the service at freshers fair, awareness events, and other cross-campus events.
