Volunteers to work alongside the core community come in various guises. Regular, irregular and last-minute Godsend! Almost always a volunteer will already have some acquaintance with Othona, rather than coming for their first visit.

Locally based volunteers coming in for the day help us at various times with such things as:
• vegetable gardening
• sewing and mending
• log splitting
• grounds maintenance
• painting
• relief driving
• envelope stuffing

Volunteers come from further afield and stay with us, typically for a week or more, when helping out with general core community work. This helps us cover, for instance, when core members take holidays.
