Are you interested in a life-changing experience? Our Chalet now offers the opportunity to volunteer for up to six months covering Spring and Summer (March to September) or Autumn and Winter (September to March). This option will provide greater opportunities to develop your leadership skills as you take on more of a lead role with other volunteers in the second part of your season. You can learn the ropes in Spring and provide support to the Programme or Guest Services team in Summer. Applications close six months prior to the start of the season you are applying for.
