We’d like to welcome you to our Volunteer Linking pages. Here you can get closer to the work of some of VSO’s volunteers and find out how they are sharing their skills and experience with some of the world’s poorest communities.
We filmed a day in Julie's life to show what volunteering in a developing country is really like. Take a look at the full video diary and show your support... More...
With a free taster pack, you can hear directly from a volunteer who is training nurses right now in Uganda, see where else we work throughout the world, and receive postcards from our other volunteers too .... More...
We hope you enjoy reading about the work of our volunteers. On average, it costs £4.83 to keep a VSO volunteer living and working overseas for a day. That may not sound like a vast amount, but the more money we receive the more volunteers we can keep working. If you would like to help support our volunteers, please join the scheme!
If you are already a member of the Volunteer Linking scheme perhaps you would like to make an individual gift, or increase your regular monthly gift.
