Become a Student Video Games Ambassador!

The Video Games Ambassadors is a network of UK games industry professionals of various disciplines who have volunteered thousands of hours of their time to mentor young game makers - through presenting talks, hosting workshops, aiding in game jams, and so much more.

Until now, the VGA volunteer programme has been exclusive to individuals already working in the industry. However, in 2022, we’re opening this rewarding opportunity up to students!

Are you a student in games who is enthusiastic about making the games industry more diverse and accessible for the current generation? Can you spare some of your time to give support and guidance to young people making their way into the industry? 

Become a Student Video Games Ambassador and help transform the lives of young game developers across the country!
