I couldn't recommend the hostel enough, it truly has been an amazing experience. Starting from the hostel itself which is like a little oasis, where there are always things to do as well as loads of relaxing moments. The staff will treat you more like family then anything, always ready to help you and to include you in all the plans without ever making you feel alone. I spent a month volunteering and it feels like it's only been a couple of days, I am so glad I have found a place like this for my first experience! Will definitely come back (as most of the people do).

Jeanne was one of the most proactive volunteers we’ve ever had. Her attitude was always extremely positive, and no matter what task she was given, she did it with genuine enthusiasm and the best energy. All the other volunteers and guests loved her, and it was truly a pride and a joy to have her with us at Tower Bridge. She integrated effortlessly with the team, brought a bright spirit to every day, and contributed so much to the friendly atmosphere we value here. Thank you so much, Jeanne!
