Become part of SCOOP
real food without the rubbish. literally.
If you believe what we believe, and you're committed to sustainable living at university like we are - we'd love to have you on the team. Here's how you can join us :
Volunteer at SCOOP
Every SCOOP group in the country is entirely led by student volunteers. That means, without volunteers there wouldn't be SCOOP.
​
Volunteers are needed to manage the operations of the SCOOP shop, actually run the shop floor, help with organising local events, contribute to the SCOOP blog and lots more.
​
There are no fixed duties of a volunteer so you can get involved as much or as little as you like and you can help us in any ways that you like.
​
If you'd like to be a part of SCOOP at your university, get in touch with your university's team and take it from there.
Start your own SCOOP
If SCOOP does not already exist at your university, you may be the next founder we are looking for.
Chances are there probably isn't anything like SCOOP already at your uni. So it is down to someone or a group of people to change that.
Be that person.
SCOOP is designed to be easy to start at any university and the SCOOP UK team exists to support new groups of people bring SCOOP to their university. Be warned, it is not easy to set up a SCOOP.
You have to be passionate, determined and hardworking. But beyond just a great thing to do, what you will learn in terms of practical
experience and applicable skills will be priceless.
Moreover, the SCOOP UK team have created a starter pack that guides you through the process of setting up a zero-waste shop and will be on hand to help you every step of the way.
For every SCOOP we set up, our voice grows louder and our ability to enact change stronger
See what you think of the starter pack but bear in mind, it's only a short version (chapters 1 and 8). If you are interested in the rest, please contact SCOOP UK directly.
