ICS is a development programme that brings together young people from the UK and developing countries to volunteer in some of the most vulnerable and marginalised communities in Africa and Asia.
Placements are 10-12 weeks in length.
UK volunteers work side by side with local volunteers, staying with host families in the local community.
ICS isn't a holiday. It's demanding but hugely rewarding. It's a great opportunity for personal development, a stepping stone to future careers and a chance to make your world a better place.
