Being a volunteer in L'Arche is life enriching and, for me, it has been a life changing experience - James, volunteer

We are on the lookout for volunteers who are willing to share their time, their gifts and their love with our community. Could that be you?

Do you have an existing passion, like cooking, music, art, gardening or walking? Or do you like trying new things? Or making new friends? You don’t even need to know already what you’d like to do: We’ll support you to find the kind of volunteering that is right for you. 

If you join us, you will be a part of the L’Arche community in Edinburgh but also L’Arche in the UK and internationally. You'd be glad to know that L'Arche Edinburgh is also a Volunteer Charter Champion!

Whatever your background, whatever time commitment you can give us, volunteering is a great way of being part of L'Arche. You'll have fun, you'll make a difference. And it might just change you along the way as well. Watch the video below to discover more about what some of our volunteers love about L'Arche.

Please note this is a voluntary role for people already based in the UK. It does not come with housing, a stipend, or visa sponsorship. If you're looking for a Tier 5 Voluntary Worker role, please apply for our Live-in Community Worker role.
