Restless Development

Restless Development is the youth-led development agency. We know that young people have the commitment and energy to tackle some of the world's biggest problems. That is why we offer young people a range of opportunities to be at the forefront of change and development.

• Funded by the Department for International Development, International Citizen Service (ICS) is a global volunteering programme that supports young people from all backgrounds to make a real difference to global poverty.

  Volunteers spend 12 weeks overseas, working alongside young people from the country where they are placed Once they return, volunteers complete the Action at Home stage of ICS.

  ICS is open to 18-25 year olds, with limited places available for Leaders aged 23+.

  Vvolunteers are asked to raise £800 to take part in ICS.  Support is given to help with this. No one will be excluded for financial reasons.

  We have placements throughout the year until 2015 in India, Nepal, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Applications should be submitted several months before the departure.
