Under 18's
The majority of the trips on our website are designed for over 18's. However, we know that there are some of you out there that desperately want to get out there earlier!
We have put some trips together specifically for younger people with a higher level of support than our normal projects. They combine volunteering with educational activities and tourist trips and are fully accompanied; you'll see a selection of these below.
We also have some of our standard projects that are suitable for people from the age of 17. You'll get up to exactly the same things as everyone else and the in-country team will be there to look after you during your stay. These are not fully accompanied trips but there is support for you if you need it. We have selected some of these trips below as well but you can find others on our website – just keep an eye out for Minimum Age 17!
