VSO
Voluntary Services Overseas (VSO) is the world's leading independent, international development charity that works through volunteers to fight poverty in developing countries). If you were asked to take your skills and experiences and transfer them to a totally new environment that won't just change your life, but also the lives of hundreds of other people, would you say 'yes'?
If you knew that your knowledge will be passed on to those you work with, and to the people they work with, long after you're back in the UK, would that make you swoon?
Your time and skills are the most important things you can offer them. You really will make a difference every day.
There may never be a better time to find out more. They'd love you to.

StreetSmart raises thousands for homeless charities in London every year during the cold winter months simply by adding £1 to your restaurant bill.
