Volunteer with us

Our volunteers are a part of the SAFE family. In the UK, and overseas, they make our work possible and transform lives. They bring energy and enthusiasm and we are constantly learning from them!

We are committed to supporting our volunteers fulfil their potential. Volunteer with us and you will gain a community of people invested in your future. Whatever your background or experience, we believe that everyone has something to offer.

Our volunteer opportunities can be tailored to fit your needs and availability. You don’t need experience or a qualification in the area you’re interested in, just a willingness to learn! We want your volunteering experience with us to equip you with new skills and build your confidence and self-esteem.

We have opportunities at our HQ in Cardiff, in our ethical store in Cardiff and overseas with our partner projects.

In return for your time and effort we will:

Develop your skills
Build your confidence
Help you into other opportunities
Give advice and guidance on your future
Make you tea and coffee!

Who are our volunteers?

Anyone can volunteer with us. If you have something to give and something to learn - then get in touch.

Volunteering has changed my life. Ive been able to find out who I am and what I want to do - at the same time as being able to help other people who aren't as fortunate. The SAFE Foundation is special and I know I will always be involved - Helen, 46

Watch this short film with our young girls Chanty and Jade who talk about how volunteering can really change lives!

The Coffee Cup Problem

Our reliance on coffee, and the disposable cups it comes in, is proving to be extremely damaging to the environment. What can be done to limit the effects of our throwaway culture?
Jord and Cai's 500km Fundraiser

We were first introduced to the safe foundation through our friend Anj and have loved hearing about the amazing work they do for communities around the world. We have always felt very passionate about small-scale, grass root charities whom often have the biggest impact towards communities in need. We feel the Safe Foundation do just that and are confident that the funds we aim to raise will go directly towards helping the marginalised Gypsy Dalit community of India.
