We are always very happy to welcome applications from people who would like to volunteer with the Red Balloon Family on any of our projects. The minimum age for volunteers is School Year 5 and there is certainly no maximum age!
We are also able to offer nationally recognised accreditation to our volunteers through our registration as an ASDAN college.
