Easy to navigate lots of details about program options.

How did you find the pre departure booklet given to you and the service of the staff in regards to answering your questions and helping you prepare?
Very informative and helpful

Did you enjoy working at your project / placement?
I had an excellent time, not only were the staff so unbelievably welcoming and accommodating, but the boys were all so polite and wonderful, eager to learn and special in their own way, a real pleasure to be around. The experience also gives you a real taste of life in India, and how wonderful it is here. I am already looking forward to next time, I will most definitely be coming back.

Accommodation and meals
Excellent food, and very comfortable bed, the boys had set everything up for me before I arrived, very clean washrooms etc

Coordinator
Kind, warm, welcoming, amazing with the kids, very interested in showing volunteers around Kolkata, and ensuring that they get a taste of life here

What was the highlight of your volunteering experience and your trip?
Unfortunately, I cannot pick just ONE, the kids were amazing ,the coordinator and his family so welcoming, and Kolkata itself is such a dynamic, interesting city with so much to see.
