LEAPS promotes Higher Education while supporting young people in secondary schools in South East Scotland and the Forth Valley area.

Many of the events we deliver in schools and on university campuses are designed around the valuable input of university student volunteers. These events include school-based workshops and campus visits. As a LEAPS volunteer you would play a vital role, working with small groups of pupils in structured workshops led by LEAPS staff. Find out more about our activities.

Our volunteer team is made up of university undergraduate students, including international students, mature students and those who accessed university having first completed a course at college.

Please note, undergraduate students from these institutions are eligible to contribute as LEAPS volunteers.

  • Edinburgh Napier University
  • Heriot-Watt University
  • Queen Margaret University
  • Scotland's Rural College (SRUC)
  • The University of Edinburgh
  • University of Stirling

You can opt in to events to suit your academic and other commitments. There is no pressure to carry out a set number of events each semester – you can decide how much you get involved. All of our events take place in a staff-supervised environment.
