Volunteering on Erraid

Volunteers join us for one-month periods and take part in the daily life and work of the island community, with tasks ranging from kitchen help and gardening to home care, maintenance, and other seasonal or communal activities. We usually have space for two to three volunteers per month. We’re delighted to host volunteers, with the understanding that suitability will be reviewed (mutually) during the visit.

Costs: We kindly ask for a contribution according to capacity of £75–125 per week to cover organic food and board expenses.

If you are able to take a 4-week break from everyday life, please complete the form linked below to apply:
