VOLUNTEER ABROAD WITH
TRAVELLERS
YOUR ADVENTURE STARTS HERE!
Have a unique travel experience that's beneficial and worthwhile... and
lots of fun and adventure.
Make a difference! Live and work abroad helping children,
adults, animals and entire communities in less advantaged
countries. Learn about their culture from the inside!
We have over 250 projects in 21 countries around the world. If you like a challenge in
conservation or you want to help abused
animals, you can do it in a unique environment. If you hanker after the
satisfying fulfilment you get from
teaching
or caring for children, or the excitement of
learning a new language, we've got just the
project for you. If you need practical and structured
work experience to boost your CV and
make you stand out from the crowd, then a placement overseas is the
perfect solution for you. You can coach and play
sports,
or if you're creative and prefer
drama, music or
dance, or if you want
something a little different, a bit
off-the-wall, we have many weird and wonderful projects just waiting for
you.
And you can do all these different
projects in 21 different
countries!
We have 13 years' experience and over 100
staff overseas who are there to look after you and provide all the
support & backup
you might need. And our hands-on help and guidance starts from the
moment you apply, all the way through to the end of your placement.

“I learnt to
rely on myself and came back a more confident and mature person. It
helped me gain focus and I am ready to carry on in my life with more
enthusiasm and purpose. A huge thank you to everyone who made this once
in a lifetime chance possible and who made me feel so welcome while I
was there.“
Anna Harrison
‘With my last trip to South Africa, I confirmed my will to improve
human and animal living conditions wherever I can. I had the opportunity
to notice that this is also a true wish of Travellers Worldwide’
Jessica Leygues
"I LOVE IT AND I'M GOING TO TRAVEL
WITH TRAVELLERS NEXT YEAR!!!!!! Thanks for the best experience ever!"
Kim Lister
"I
also wanted to end this year by thanking you, and all at Travellers, for
making this year so special. You were able to help
me make my lifelong dream come true, and for that I am so eternally
grateful. With all my love and best wishes, A very grateful ex-volunteer, Jo
'The Elephant Lady' Harris."
“I’ve got so
many fantastic memories that I will cherish forever. Thank you again for
all that you have done in making a dream come true. I really did have an
experience of a lifetime and if I could, I would go back tomorrow.”
Sarah Batty
“I was in China last Sept
teaching Kindergarten Children. I really loved this project and the
country and I hope to re visit this year. I have done 2 of your projects
now, and I can’t get enough of them. Maybe you will see me again soon!!”

Andy Pratt,
who volunteered at Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage, sent us a lovely
poem about his
experience. This is the last verse:
So if you have any spare
cash,
Just gather up your stash,
And send it off to Travellers - don’t forget!
It’s the best two-grand you’ll spend,
You’ll not want it to end,
It’s an amazing time away you won’t regret.
You'll never forget your time with us. |
