Educate, Advocate, Empower:
Join Our Mission to Create A More Compassionate World for all Species
Verify Humanity are working towards redefining the relationship humans have with animals. We believe that a relationship built on understanding and kindness would allow humans and animals to peacefully co-exist, and would prevent animal abuse and exploitation. To achieve this, we focus on raising awareness of the issues animals face, sharing knowledge and empowering people to take compassionate action. We believe that, together, we can make a meaningful difference to the lives of animals, but we can't do it without you.
'Speciesism' is the human-held belief that certain species have more value than others.

Volunteer Opportunities
You don't need to be highly skilled to make a difference with us. We value enthusiasm and love for animals above all else. If none of the listed roles are suitable for you let's get our heads together and personalise one for you. Email us here.

When Do I Work?If you are a part-time volunteer we are aware that you are probably helping us on top of your already busy life. We have noted the days that you prefer to work from your application form but it is completely up to you when you work during the week. However, it is helpful if you can log into your email address very regularly to avoid emails going unanswered. We ideally prefer a 24-hour turn around for emails.
-
What If I Want to Change Roles?We believe volunteering should bring benefits to both parties. We are very keen to help Volunteers progress by changing roles. This allows you to gain insights into different job roles, and bolster your C.V. We would however encourage a minimum of 6 months doing one role to get the most out of it. We would then time it so that you switch roles once the project you are on is complete and we have found someone to replace you. If, however, you want to increase the number of hours you are volunteering, we would happily get you working on a second project or a different role in tandem with your original role.

How long do I work?This may fluctuate depending on what is going on in your life but it helps to keep momentum and enthusiasm going if you commit to a minimum number of hours each week. We try to agree what hours you feel comfortable committing during your induction stage and we encourage you to think carefully about this. We don’t want you overcommitting and feeling stressed that you cannot fit everything in or disappointed that you have failed to do something. We really want you to enjoy your time with Verify Humanity. If you have a visa that only allows a certain amount of volunteering, it is of course your responsibility to ensure that you do not go over those hours. Please keep us informed on a regular basis of your hours so we can help you do this. You may of course just be volunteering for a one-off project. eg: writing an article or doing some art work for some publicity.
