Come and build with us — any time of year, any length of stay.
Malawi doesn’t just need money — it needs people like you to come out, share your skills, connect with people and take home far more than you bring. We don’t operate a volunteer placement programme anymore. However, we welcome self-sufficient visitors to come and see our projects and meet our team in person.
The kids smiled more today than the average British kid does in a year. Inspiring stuff — it really is.— Luke Lynam, volunteer

What you’ll do
Helping in whatever way you can. We especially need experienced teachers, sports coaches (any level), and builders or handy types. You’ll be based at Lingadzi Academy in Lilongwe, where over 400 children come to play every day — typically running one or two 90-minute coaching sessions a day, with the chance to join construction, tree planting or playground projects too.
I loved getting stuck into the football coaching. Some awesome talent and even more impressive goal celebrations. I’ll be back next year — with more footballs!— Paul Christian, volunteer football coach
