Volunteering  We are always very pleased to hear from local people who want to given their time, their skills or their experience as a volunteer. We are a big Community and have lots of things that we would like to do, but do not have the resources or the time for.   Volunteering makes a valuable contribution to the lives of people with learning disabilites and many people find that they receive more from volunteering than they give. L'Arche is committed to supporting volunteers to make a difference.  Volunteers support people with learning disabilities to become more actively involved with their local communities, explore new interests and hobbies, develop social and independence skills and develop meaningful friendships. Please get in touch with us, whatever you have to offer. All volunteers are important to us. We do consider applications from overseas. If you come from outside the UK you will need to apply as a live-in assistant. Please note that we expect live-in assistants to be able to work for us for at least 12 months.  If you are interested in volunteering with L'Arche Lambeth, please click Here for a volunteer application form; Here for background information about L'Arche.
