Gap Year

For those with no, or little, mission experience who want to take a year out of their lives and do something completely different for God! This opportunity lets you work alongside an overseas or UK team for 6 months, before which we run an exciting training programme to prepare you for the placement. Our training is both practical and biblically academic with an underlying theme of discipleship. Read more…

Short-Term Placements

Get your toes wet! There is sometimes, the opportunity to work for one to three months in a team overseas or within the UK base. A willingness to get involved and work alongside others in a variety of ways is all that’s needed. It’s a great way to serve God by serving others! Please contact us directly to find out more: click here.

All of our short-term opportunities are open, where possible, to individuals (18+), couples and families.

Currently, we can only offer training and placements in the UK for English language speakers and have only a limited number of places for overseas students (those who require a visa). These are primarily given to people who are referred to us by our workers, partner organisations and churches. If you are interested with working with us and live outside of Europe please see our International website for your nearest World Horizons base: www.worldhorizons.org
