At Starfish, our volunteer’s safety is our top priority.  Starfish provides an In-country Coordinator to look after all of our volunteers. Our In-country Coordinator offers 24-hour support and is always on hand with advice and the all-important local knowledge to ensure our volunteers make the most of their experience.

In addition, all of Ventures are certified by one of our Venture Managers and our In Country Coordinator makes regular visits. All volunteer accommodation (which is checked by our In-country Coordinator) is arranged in advance, as are domestic stop-overs (if required), transfers and domestic travel to the Venture destination.

We like to think we’ve thought of everything.  We want our volunteers to have a safe, hassle-free time, so they concentrate on their project and get the most from their experience. In addition, for those volunteers intending to explore Thailand during or after their stay, we suggest you bring your mobile phone and register with safetytext.com. This is a fantastic free service that allows you to inform loved ones back home where you’ll be and who with during your travels.
