You are an integral part of this process. Together, we're doing things we haven't done before, but, without guarantees, you've invested your spirit in Glencree, and we're very grateful. Most of the work projects are physically demanding. Volunteers are needed to assist with routine maintenance of the conference center, such as lawn maintenance and landscaping, painting, cleaning, and preparing meeting rooms. In addition, volunteers help with construction and refurbishing projects to expand and improve conference facilities.
Some volunteers help prepare and serve meals and provide general services to program participants.
Travel You will be met by Global Volunteers' North American team leader at Dublin International Airport and driven to Glencree. You will stay on the premises of Glencree's retreat center along with local and international staff, other volunteers and program participants. The sleeping quarters are double-occupancy rooms with bunk beds. Meals, which are served in the center's dining room, are simple, typical hearty Irish fare, as well as special dishes prepared by the center's long-term international volunteers. Free Time Evenings and weekends will allow you to enjoy cultural attractions in Dublin and nearby Bray, a coastal city.
