Overview
Towering Himalayan peaks, rolling tea plantations, and vibrant local communities set the scene for an experience unlike any other. Based in the peaceful mountain town of Palampur, you’ll work alongside local schools, community groups, and healthcare partners to deliver engaging health promotion initiatives that empower communities through education, awareness, and prevention. It’s an opportunity to apply your knowledge in a meaningful way while experiencing a side of India few travellers ever see.
Across rural northern India, limited access to health education and preventative healthcare continues to affect community wellbeing. Working alongside local partners, you’ll help design and deliver interactive workshops covering topics such as nutrition, hygiene, women’s health, mental wellbeing, disease prevention, and healthy lifestyles. Every activity is designed to build community knowledge, encourage healthier choices, and create lasting impact.

Not only will you feel a great sense of achievement, but it’s an experience that’s guaranteed to make you stand out in any future employment opportunity.
Are flights included?
Flights aren’t included in the programme cost because many participants choose to extend their travels before or after the programme, so booking flights independently gives you the flexibility to arrange your own travel plans. It also works out more cost efficient if you book them.
Do I need any previous experience or qualifications?
You don’t need any previous experience or qualifications to join most of our programmes. We provide comprehensive preparation and support before departure, as well as a detailed Programme Orientation on arrival in-country, ensuring participants feel confident and ready to contribute to the programme.
Can I raise money to fund my trip?
Absolutely! This is something we encourage you to do, and we’ll help you set up an official fundraising page so you can share it with your network to collect donations.
What is the accommodation like?
You’ll either be staying at our hub, or a local partner guesthouse in dorm-style accommodation, sharing your room with up to three other participants. There are western showers and toilets, as well as communal spaces for relaxing. While you will be provided with home comforts, they will be different to your usual standards and all part of the challenge!
