How to apply

COVID19 Update

Due to COVID19, we have had to suspend the ELHAP Volunteering Project until Spring 2021. You can still apply now though - we hope to start processing applications from February 2021. We are very sorry for the inconvenience but hope that you will understand that keeping everyone safe is of paramount importance.

Applying to become an ELHAP volunteer is easy. You just need to complete an online form to start the whole process.

When we receive your completed application, we will then send details of how to complete the vetting process (this includes completing an enhanced DBS check etc). Please note that the DBS checks can take weeks or even months so please be patient with this part of the process.

ELHAP uses Better Impact to process all volunteer applications and to help schedule volunteer bookings.
