From conservation work to mentoring programmes, the tireless efforts of University of Chester student volunteers have been recognised at a special celebratory event.

From pitching tents to ideas for new enterprises, students from the University of Chester enjoyed the opportunity to boost their business plans on an action-packed adventure in Spain.

The worlds of arts and culture, health, social care and education will join together at a free University of Chester-led event to discover new opportunities to make a difference to people’s lives.

An event open to all at Chester Cathedral this month will provide the chance to see conservation in action as student volunteers help to preserve historic books for future generations.
