Get Involved
Be part of the family!
There are so many ways to get involved with Abernethy. We always need people who share our vision to stand with us in prayer as we seek to achieve our mission. You can volunteer at one of our centres through the international volunteer scheme, or just by giving us a call and telling us how you can help. You can spend 6 months or more being a part of one of our communities by joining the Academy, Gap Year program or learning how to be an outdoor instructor in our Trainee Instructor program. If you have a useful skill you can utilise or some time on your hands to spread the word of what we do, we would love to hear from you!
