Volunteer with us - how it works
We are a small charity & always want to ensure we can provide meaningful volunteering experiences to our supporters. It means so much to hear from those who love what we do as much as we do & want to get involved.
With that in mind, it would be great if you could complete this Volunteer’s Survey, which gives you the chance to tell us what sort of things you’d like to do to support us. That will help us to match your skills to opportunities as they arise, & allow us to suggest specific volunteer roles you might like to apply for.
Please be patient with us - we are so grateful for all offers of support, but we are a small team so we don't always have opportunities available.
If you are a mountain leader, walk leader, counsellor or coach interested in being involved in our events, please scroll down to see details below.

FAQs about this role:
- Does the role ever have a physical presence supporting the wellbeing walks or retreats / familiarisation during induction? Not on a regular basis, although we always recommend that our staff attend a walk or retreat during their first few months to get a good sense of what we do.
- Benefits / annual leave available? We have a NEST pension scheme & employees receive 25 days of annual leave (pro rated) plus 3 days of extra paid holiday which are normally taken during Christmas/New Year.
- Team culture - do the team come together at any point? We all work remotely, as our core team live across England and Wales. We do meet up in person occasionally - but for the rest of the time we have a strong & supportive team which works well via Microsoft Teams.
