Becoming a Summer Volunteer with VSO

Make a difference in someone's life and become a Summer Volunteer with VSO.

VSO is an organization that works with volunteers to help fight the war on poverty.

Developing countries throughout the world need volunteers to help them in a variety of areas, ranging from health care to education and everything in between.

Volunteers can work in over 40 countries, using their skills to improve the lives of others. You'll learn about a new culture and enrich your own life by travelling to another country.

Volunteering during the summer provides you with a wealth of opportunities and experiences that will continue to enrich your life for years to come.

There may also be opportunities for you to volunteer at VSO’s head office in Putney. If this is of interest, please send your CV and details of the work experience you would like to gain to our HR department (hr@vso.org.uk)
