Volunteer with us

A few hours a week is enough to be useful.

You do not need a qualification we have advertised, and you do not need to commit to a year. Tell us what you can give and we will match you to something real.

How it works

What happens after you register

1. We call you within a week

A short conversation about your time, your area and what you would actually enjoy doing.

2. Induction and safeguarding

A session covering how we work, what dignity looks like in practice, and the rules around photography and consent.

3. You start with a partner

Your first sessions are alongside an experienced volunteer. Nobody is sent out alone.

4. You choose your rhythm

Weekly, monthly or seasonal. Tell us when it stops working and we will change it, not chase you.

Volunteers receive a black Ikshanaa collared shirt at induction and wear it on all field activity, so families can identify who is with us.
