国 イギリス
コード VAP UK-01
プログラム名 SUMMER AT THE OTHONA COMMUNITY
開催期間 2025/08/09(土)～2025/08/23(土)
背景 The Othona Community in Bradwell-on-Sea, Essex was founded in 1946. It is a residential centre for people of different ages, nationalities and backgrounds to seek a common understanding in the cause of Peace. Othona has welcomed VAP volunteers since the early 1970's. Othona is a non-dogmatic Christian Community founded next to one of the oldest churches in the UK (654 AD). It fully involves non-Christians. It is an experimental community where work, worship, study and play are combined. Volunteers will be fully integrated in the life of the community.
仕事内容 During summer we will be helping with the day to day running of the community, and interacting with guests and members, ongoing work to the grounds and gardens and creation of new facilities.
宿泊 Volunteers will be camping and tents are NOT provided, therefore volunteers should bring their own tents and sleeping bags/mats. Food will be healthy and home-made. Vegetarian diets can be catered for.
場所 . LOCATION: The Othona Community is situated near Bradwell-on-Sea on the east coast of Essex, next to a beautiful nature reserve. It is 5km from the nearest village.
The Othona Community is located at 100km northeast of London, approximately 3 hours by public transport.

LEISURE: During the volunteers’ time there, there will be themed study weeks. Details of these events can be viewed on Othona's website when they become available (https://www.othonaessex.org.uk/).

HOSTING FEE:
Volunteers placed through VAP will be asked to pay a fee of ?90 GBP upon arrival. VAP charges this fee as without it we would be virtually unable to organise any projects in the UK.
Volunteers eventually placed through IVS will not need to pay a hosting fee as they have already contributed through the fee they paid to their sending organisation.
