Different Ways To Get Involved Archives | Mission Direct

Can I use my professional skills to support your work?

Often, yes. Teachers, medical professionals, builders, administrators, fundraisers, communicators and many others have brought their expertise to support our partners. Tell us about your skills and we can advise whether there is a suitable opportunity on a current or future project.

How can I become an ambassador or speak about Mission Direct in my church, school or community group?

We love to equip people to be ambassadors. We can provide resources, slides, stories and guidance to help you host an information evening, speak at a service or run an assembly. If you are interested, please contact the office and we can explore what would work best.

Can I volunteer in the UK?

There are often opportunities to help with events, administration, communications or church engagement from the UK. From time to time we also look for volunteers to support with specialist tasks such as photography, video editing or copywriting.

I’m not able to travel – are there other ways I can be involved?

Absolutely. You can support Mission Direct by giving, praying, fundraising, spreading the word or helping at events in the UK. Sharing stories with your church, school, business or community group can be just as powerful as travelling yourself.

Can I volunteer as part of a school, youth group or church group?

Yes. We work with churches, schools and youth groups to plan group trips that fit their needs, safeguarding requirements and educational or discipleship goals. If you are a group leader, we can talk you through available destinations, costs and timelines.
