FAQs...
Can we help with anything?
Do I need a visa to volunteer in the UK?
Anyone who is not a British Citizen living outside the United Kingdom requires a visa to volunteer in the UK. Only UK citizens or individuals with settled status can join the programme without a UK Visa.
Time for God is a Sponsor for Tier 5 Charity License holder through UK Visa and Immigration. This means that we can issue Certifificate of Sponsorship that allows suitable individuals to apply for a visa to volunteer in the UK under TfG programme.
Can I choose where I volunteer?
Time for God staff go through a rigorous process during the recruitment process where we assess skills, intrests and motivation of the applicant.
We also carry out an equally rigorous assessment of placement to narrow down the type requirements and the most suitable attributes required from a volunteer we match them with.
Our matching process is based on applicant and placement common attributes and we are proud that our tailored approach has been successful for almost 60 years.
The applicant has much input in choosing a placement but under our capable staff's direction.
