Offer your time and skills to help co-create the active and kind-hearted Jamyang you enjoy.
Our local and remote volunteering programme is open to all – we’re always on the lookout for new team members
What is a local volunteer?
A volunteer is someone who springs into action to benefit others. At Jamyang Buddhist Centre London our local volunteer team are community members who offer service by volunteering their time and skills at the Buddhist centre. Often the volunteers are London based or local to Jamyang Buddhist Centre London, and the activities they are involved in are on-site on a weekly basis.
What is a remote volunteer?
Our remote volunteers are often people who have a connection with Jamyang Buddhist Centre London, through our online programmes. The remote aspect of their volunteering means they offer service with offsite activity, this could be anything from proofreading and copywriting, to surveys and research or video editing and social media support.
