I wanted to give something back.  I hope that I have been able to be of some help at Gampola during my two visits.  However, I have received so much more in return and I can honestly say that my experiences in Gampola have changed my life. Valerie a volunteer in Sri Lanka

Exciting opportunities where you can help

Do you want to give in your gap year, or have a life-changing break from your regular work, or maybe you’ve retired, or you want to help in your annual holiday. Then you can volunteer overseas through a placement with one of our partners in the developing world in east and west Africa, and India and Sri Lanka. We can place you if you’re 18 to 90 and have a few weeks or a few months to offer.

Our Placements

Our hand-picked portfolio offers only carefully chosen opportunities as we prefer to maintain our relationships with our partners by providing them a regular supply of volunteers thus enabling them to continue their work. This approach makes our placements and your contribution unique.

Current placements

• Teach conversational English, Maths or French in schools in Tamil Nadu, India

• Community, health and IT projects in Ghana, Africa

• Work with children in an orphanage in Sri Lanka

Unlike many travel adventure, gap year, expedition or volunteering companies our placements are realistically priced and our core fee is the lowest.
