Volunteer your skills in South Africa, Uganda and  in the UK! Yebo work with child support organisations and wildlife conservation organisations in the UK and Africa. Apply now to volunteer and use your skills.

Yebo support children with emotional and social disadvantages through primate and animal-based communication activities.  We work with special needs schools, children’s hospices, orphanages and pediatric AIDS foundations.
Our support is focused on animal assisted therapy and through primate communication activities. Yebo aim to open a UK animal assisted therapy centre within the next 3 years. Our volunteers support the children through a number of activities including art, music and drama.  The children are able to observe chimpanzees in primate sanctuaries learning about their behaviour and the difficulties that they face in the wild. All of this aims to have a therapeutic and educational experience to benefit the childrens and primate conservation. Children do not work hands on with primates but are able to  have hands on contact with other wildlife from safe and well managed sanctuaries, where we also encourage children to support conservation.
