The International Youth Volunteering Programme (IYVP) can offer young people in Wales aged 18-25 to take part in a full-time, structured, and supported volunteer international programme. All our placements are fully funded, with travel, accommodation, visas and health insurance costs covered, and volunteers receive a small monthly allowance to cover additional expenses.
We are looking for a volunteer to support the Portuguese Red Cross in Cucujães, serving the Municipality of Oliveira de Azeméis. The Red Cross offers support to the local community in three main areas: Social Assistance and access to Welfare Services, Emergency Response & First Aid and Youth Engagement. This is a great opportunity to get involved in social action projects and find out what you are interested in!
We are especially keen to hear from individuals who may not normally get the chance to volunteer overseas, who are passionate and motivated for this kind of work, but who also understand that these types of placements require adaptability and resilience.
Please note: this programme is Taith funded and therefore exclusively for young people aged 18-25 from or currently living in Wales.
