Trusted Partners
Trusted Partners are organisations that are running fantastic volunteering projects all over the world and are all recruiting students from the University of Manchester to volunteer during summer 2017. These projects run at different times throughout the summer and include a huge range of activities. From mental health placements to working on conservation projects, there will be something for you.

If you want to find your own volunteering overseas
Volunteering overseas is a lot more complex than volunteering at home and can be a real leap from your comfort zone. When looking for an organisation to volunteer with we recommend checking out the ethics, costs, safety, impact and sustainability of projects. With so much to think about we have lots of guidance to help your decision-making.
