Let’s be honest, modern life can be full-on. Whether you're a student recovering from the pressure of exams or a school leaver staring into the unknown of your future, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But what if there was a way to hit reset, build confidence, and come back stronger, more focused, and ready for what’s next?
Welcome to The Leap.
Our four-week volunteering travel programmes are designed to do more than take you abroad. They're crafted to support your mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing through a powerful mix of purposeful projects, outdoor adventure, and meaningful connection.
It’s proven: giving back and being part of something bigger than yourself can have a huge impact on how you feel. When you’re helping to protect endangered sea turtles in Costa Rica, reforesting landscapes in Kenya, or supporting youth education in Cambodia, you’re not just ticking a box, you’re actively making a difference. That sense of purpose builds self-esteem, reduces anxiety, and brings a lasting sense of fulfilment.
This is more than volunteering. It’s contribution with clarity—a chance to understand your role in the world and feel genuinely good about the impact you’re making.
There is something transformational about swapping screens for scenery. All our volunteering travel programmes take you off-grid, deep into nature. Whether it's hiking through a cloud forest, snorkelling in coral reefs, or watching the sunrise from a mountain peak, these moments aren’t just for the camera roll, they are nourishment for the soul.
Outdoor adventure gets your blood pumping, your confidence rising, and your stress levels dropping. Good for the body and even better for the mind. Plus, tackling challenges like jungle treks or river crossings will leave you with a sense of achievement that city life rarely offers.
The Leap isn’t just about feeling good in the moment, it is about helping you go further. Alongside the personal growth, we build tangible outcomes into our programmes that help shape your future.
Our summer programmes can earn you an International Volunteering Diploma, accredited by the National Open College Network and worth 16 UCAS points, a significant boost for your university application. Plus, our experiences also support your Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award, ticking off your residential section in the most exciting way possible.
Many of our Leapers say the skills they gain - resilience, teamwork, cultural awareness - give them an edge in uni interviews, job applications, and beyond. The sense of purpose and perspective gained from these trips can be life-changing, helping to clarify what matters and where you want to go next.
You’ll be joining a group of like-minded people who are in the same stage of life as you. That means every team is filled with others who are navigating similar questions, dreams, and transitions.
It’s this shared experience that forges the strongest friendships. You'll find encouragement when things get tough, laughter when you need it most, and a circle of support that extends long after the trip ends.
Over four unforgettable weeks, you’ll do more than volunteer or travel, you’ll launch into your next chapter. Many of our Leapers continue their journey afterwards, but now they’re more independent, more confident, and more aware of how to travel responsibly.
They return home stronger, more grounded, and ready to take on whatever comes next, whether that’s university, career goals, or simply a refreshed outlook on life.
Feeling good and doing good don’t have to be separate things. With The Leap, they go hand in hand. So if you’re ready to take a break that doesn’t just refresh you, but truly transforms you, this is your sign.
Step off the beaten path. Feel the joy of making a difference. Discover your resilience, your purpose, and your people.
