Volunteers
Our volunteers are 17-75 year olds who join Raleigh from a variety of backgrounds, nationalities and stages of life. Some might come on an expedition after leaving school, whilst studying at University, on a break from work, taking a gap year or they could just be individuals who are up for a new challenge.
