Apply to be a Volunteer

LIFE relies heavily on its enthusiastic, dedicated volunteers - our LIFE Force - who offer their time and effort to help run our literacy intervention programmes and other initiatives. Volunteering for LIFE can range from a one-off engagement to help collect and sort books, to involvement in the volunteer-staffed weekly Paired Reading Programme in the government schools or opening up school libraries for children to check out reading books. If you would like to get involved, please complete the form below and review our Paired Reading Volunteer Handbook. We look forward to hearing from you, and thank you for your interest!
