Volunteer Outreaches
The volunteers the charity was looking for, from medical and dental professionals to teachers.
From the archive. Around 1998 to 2001 this web address carried the website of a small UK relief charity. This page keeps one of its items as a historical record. Relief Weekly, which publishes the site today, is an independent magazine with no connection to that charity; its name, the names of its staff and supporters, addresses, telephone numbers, registration details and donation forms have been removed, and lost pictures have been replaced with credited photographs of the places concerned. Nothing here is a current appeal.

The charity looked for qualified volunteers to work on its outreaches around the world. It asked for experienced teachers, medical and dental professionals and administrative help, and noted that French and Spanish were a plus for overseas roles. Some of the work was based at its UK office.
Applicants filled in a form giving their profession and experience. The form and the office telephone number are no longer in use and have been removed. For volunteering today, start with how to start volunteering in the UK and, before any placement overseas, what to check before volunteering abroad.
