We welcome volunteers who can commit time, follow our policies, and respect the dignity, privacy, and independence of individuals with visual impairments.

Before starting any placement, all volunteers are asked to read and agree to DYP’s Student Protection Policy and Volunteer Policy. These policies explain how we keep children and vulnerable adults safe, what behaviour is expected from volunteers, and how to report any concerns.
