Volunteers may be involved in all three programmes or focus mainly on one programme, depending on their interests, experience and agreement with the hosting organisation. In the Daily Centre, volunteers support children and young people through creative workshops, educational activities, games, sports, homework support and activities that strengthen social skills and inclusion. In the Psychosocial Counselling Programme, volunteers help with preparation of materials, spaces, awareness-raising and community activities.
