people and places: responsible volunteering

people and places is an award-winning, ethical and responsible volunteer travel organisation. We create individual placements for each volunteer, matching their skills and experiences to local needs. Our approach is personal, professional and honest - we are a social enterprise - working for the mutual benefit of volunteers and projects. As a people and places volunteer you will work alongside local people (never instead of them), helping them create the futures they want for themselves. We need teachers, childcare, healthcare and social workers, people with business skills, practical skills....and so much more. Whether you want a placement based on your professional skills or on your interests and hobbies, whether you want to travel to volunteer or prefer to volunteer from home linking up to a project abroad online - we can create a meaningful placement for you
