These are suggestions by Cambridge university and should be applicable wherever you are looking to apply.

If anyone wants any chemistry specific supercurriculars (both for over summer and during term), I’m happy to suggest some.
My preferred subject is psychology

Further reading on the subject (I read two books + various articles)
Springpod
Summer school
Volunteering at a library(? may be more extra curricular)
Volunteering to be a mental health ambassador
Insight talks with Balliol College
