Raleigh ICS achievement
Between January and April 2013 volunteers from the UK came together with volunteers in India and Nicaragua to take part in Raleigh ICS. In their teams they tackled issues in remote communities, making a real difference to the lives of the people there. See what they achieved
Want to find out more about life on a Raleigh Expedition?
Come along to one of our Open Events! They’re held all around the UK and are a fantastic opportunity to speak to staff and past volunteers about the countries you could visit, the projects, fundraising and more information about safety, support and training. Book your place at an Open Event
Volunteers
Our volunteers are 17-75 year olds who join Raleigh from a variety of backgrounds, nationalities and stages of life. Some might come on an expedition after leaving school, whilst studying at University, on a break from work, taking a gap year or they could just be individuals who are up for a new challenge.

Some of our alumni have been Living Below the Line to help raise awareness of issues facing people living in poverty and to raise money to support projects which help tackle it. It's not too late for you to get involved - Live Below the Line yourself any time between now and the end of June, or get inspired by the blog and donate. They definitely gave themselves a tough challenge! http://raleighalumni.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/raleigh-international-alumni-live-below.html
