Disability and volunteering: access, inclusion, and real-world practicality.

Updated Jan. 2026 – This tag page collects Voluntouring posts that mention disabled volunteers, disability inclusion, or accessibility. It is a starting point, not a guarantee that a placement will be accessible or suitable for your needs.

Adults only (18+). Voluntouring.org no longer publishes opportunities for under 18s.
Some posts may involve children or vulnerable people. Volunteers should not replace trained staff or provide personal care, therapy, or unsupervised one-to-one support.

How to use this page

Open a post that interests you and check the publication date. Some listings may be outdated.
If it still looks active, use the contact details section in the post (not the comments) to reach the host via their website, application form, or email.
Share only the information that is necessary to discuss accessibility and the role.

Accessibility varies a lot

Ask practical questions before you apply: access to bedrooms and bathrooms, steps and door widths, transport, internet and local services, the exact tasks, the pace of work, and what support is available on site.
“Inclusive” can mean many things, so confirm details early.

Costs and contribution fees

Many opportunities are work exchanges, but some hosts ask for a contribution fee. Read carefully before contacting the host.
If a fee is required, ask what it covers, the refund policy, and how training and safeguarding are handled when the placement involves children or vulnerable people.
