Develop new skills and make a difference in your community - volunteer with us today
We’re an award-winning education charity, and since 1984, we’ve helped hundreds of students improve their lives through education and employment.
Volunteering with us offers you the opportunity to gain insight into how an education charity operates, support our students and day-to-day activities, and boost your own employability in the process.
We’re always on the lookout for passionate individuals like you to join our team.
Throughout the year, ELATT may be able to offer volunteering placements at our offices in East or West London. Our main volunteering opportunities are as a Volunteer Teaching Assistant or as a Volunteer Administration Assistant and when we offer them, they are open to anyone who wants to gain some teaching or administration experience in an informal setting or simply if you would like to contribute by volunteering your spare time. Please note that we cannot offer these opportunities all year round and will only respond in periods that we are recruiting.
If you would like to find out more or would like to join the waiting list for when we next run these opportunities, please click the links below to find out more about each role:
