Lattitude placements suit individuals who are outward looking and seeking to engage the minds of other people as well as their own. A disposition towards physical activity and sports as well as the ability to enjoy yourself are also real assets

For applicants from the UK, we have a number of bursary schemes available for volunteers from a variety of backgrounds.

Our bursary scheme and funded placement projects reduce the barrier of cost for young people experiencing financial problems. They are designed to help young people who would not otherwise be able to afford to go.

Schools placements

Lattitude placements are largely working within private (often boarding) schools, where volunteers work as junior members of staff. Nearly all placements are for the full school year. You may coach sport, music or drama, help with lessons or administration.
Community Care placements

Particularly rewarding placements are with the L’Arche Foundation, where you will care for adults with mental disabilities by living in and sharing the work of family-type homes. If you would like to know how many vacancies are currently available for this placement, please contact us by using the enquiry form or telephone number below.
Qualities/skills required

An ability to speak Spanish is desirable, however if you have no Spanish but are willing to learn, you may also be considered.
