Student Space: An evaluation of a web-based intervention supporting student mental wellbeing over the pandemic.
Centre for Mental Health; 2022.
[This report is based on Centre for Mental Health’s independent evaluation of Student Space, which was launched by Student Minds in August 2020 to support the mental wellbeing of students during the pandemic. The report finds that the platform was a valuable extra resource for students’ mental health, and offered a high quality, rapid response to a crisis when it was set up in 2020.]

Understanding local patterns of volunteer activity during COVID-19.
The Young Foundation; 2021.
[This research, commissioned by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, seeks to improve understanding of the ways in which volunteers were mobilised at local authority levels in England during the Covid-19 pandemic, with the overarching aim to support future policy development on volunteering. The findings reflect the experiences of community organisations, local authorities and funding bodies, among others, during the spring and summer of 2020.]
