Our overseas staff regularly visit host-families, volunteers and placements to ensure all is running smoothly. We maintain a cycle of monitoring of all volunteer accommodation and placements. On arrival our staff will make a final check that your accommodation and arrangements for your placement are acceptable. Again, during the first week we shall be in contact to ensure all is satisfactory. After the first week, volunteers vary in the amount of contact that they need with local staff; however we actively check on the status of every volunteer weekly - through direct contact or through the host family.
