VOLUNTEER CHALLENGES

Community Project Work after your Trek or Cycle Challenge

We know that many of you want to give something back to the country that has hosted your amazing experience. For several years now we've supported several Community Projects, and in those countries our groups have the opportunity to visit them and take small gifts such as unwanted clothing or children's books.

Now you can give something back in a more practical way! Extend your stay for three days and help the local community with worthwhile project work.

The work is likely to involve a mix of building or renovating classrooms or other community facilities, undertaking practical conservation work or helping with children.

Because we want to ensure our Volunteer Challenges achieve the most worthwhile results possible, we cannot guarantee exactly what you will be doing far in advance, as the needs of the project change. We will be able to give you firm project details nearer departure.

You do not need any special skills, but you should be fit, healthy and flexible in your expectations!

Our Volunteer Challenges are perfect for individuals and small groups.

If you represent a larger group, or a company looking to fulfil Corporate Social Responsibility aims, we can tailor-make a trip combined with community project work just for you ... or you can choose to opt solely for community project work if you prefer. Trips can also be combined with fundraising for your charity.
