Volunteering on a Sense holiday

Sense holidays offer deafblind people much more than just loads of fun!

Why volunteer?

If you enjoy:

  • Meeting new people
  • Trying fresh challenges
  • Exploring different ways of communicating
  • Visiting interesting places
  • Discovering new pursuits

All this – plus a terrific sense of achievement!

Our holidays also give families a break from the often demanding work of supporting a deafblind person.

Experience this!

On Sense get-away-from-it-all breaks our enthusiastic holidaymakers have tried:

  • Water ski-ing
  • Snow tubing
  • Pottery painting
  • Swimming
  • Horse and carriage rides
  • A sensory garden
  • Paddling in the sea – and much, much more!

Accommodation ranges from cottages, barns, farms, canal boats, yurts and youth hostels.

"The holiday was not only great fun, but one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done."
