Volunteering activities typically start at around 9.00am, and most sites wrap up about 3:00pm ... some finish earlier or later. As volunteers, it is up to you how much time you are on site for - we just ask that you let the site leader know you are leaving site. Examples of the work undertaken by volunteers on site can be seen on our YouTube channel. There are many other opportunities to volunteer that are not necessarily site based - see more on our Volunteering Webpages.
