SolidariTee is an international charity run and led entirely by volunteers who are students and young people. We're working to make lasting change in the way refugees and other people forced to flee persecution and violence are treated, through a combination of awareness-raising, advocacy, and fundraising to support grassroots NGOs providing vital refugee legal aid and mental health support.

We are currently looking for volunteers to join our Regional (uni), Central, and Leadership teams.

Positions on our University of Aberdeen Regional SolidariTee Team:

• Team Lead
• Regional Events & Fundraising Officers

As part of your university team, you’d be involved in organising fundraising and awareness events – anything from club nights, fashion shows and balls to panel discussions, film screenings and pub quizzes – and selling our SolidariTee t-shirts to raise funds for legal aid and mental health support for refugees. It’s also a great opportunity to expand your own knowledge of topics relating to migration and forced displacement and to spark meaningful conversations with the student community and members of the public. No prior knowledge is required, just motivation and dedication to raise funds and stand in solidarity with people who have been forced to flee their homes.

Positions on our Central Team:

• Events Officers
• Partnerships Officers
• Publicity Officers (social media team)
• Digital Education Officers (social media team)

Our Central Team includes students and other young people from around the UK and works together to coordinate SolidariTee’s core functions and organise opportunities to bring our volunteers and supporters together. This includes organising our annual conference, creating content for our central Instagram page @teesofsolidarity, and developing partnerships with uni societies, student groups, fashion shows, balls and more!

Positions on our Leadership Team:

• Secretary
• Social Media Manager
• Events Lead
• Partnerships Lead

Our Leadership Team provides overall coordination and oversight to the activities of our Central Team and Regional Teams, and it is a great opportunity to be involved with leading the direction of the SolidariTee movement on a national level.

Please note that the minimum age to volunteer for this opportunity is 17 years old.
