Disability Volunteers

Disabilities can be conditions or illnesses that may require assistance from another individual or group. Across the World there are children and adults who are in need of assistance because of a disability. The most common assistance groups are educational, emotional, medical and physical and include every age group. Less wealthy countries need volunteers and charity funding to cope with the demands of caring for individuals with disabilities and many UK based organisations can help you organise a volunteer placement.
