3 weeks volunteering with sea turtles in Sri Lanka

  • January 2025
I volunteered in Sri Lanka for 3 weeks where I had the opportunity to work on the sea turtle project. Before I arrived in Sri Lanka the team were helpful in answering any questions, providing loads of info and getting all volunteers in contact with each other. My favourite moments were watching the turtles being released and spending time all together in the evenings. I would recommend this programme to everyone. I felt safe my entire trip, the food and accommodation were great and it was a lovely group of people.

Helping in the TMR kindergarten in Sri Lanka

  • December 2024
I volunteered on the childcare [rogram in Sri Lanka for two weeks over summer. This was my first time travelling solo, and I could not recommend The Mighty Roar more as a chance to make friends and adjust to travelling in a supportive but independent environment. The hands-on support of both the local and external teams made this trip the best it can be. If you are thinking about doing it, go for it! You really will not regret it!

Sea turtle conservation in Sri Lanka

  • December 2024
I signed up for a 4-week turtle conservation program in Sri Lanka because I’ve always been passionate about marine wildlife and wanted to do something hands-on that would make a real difference. The support from TMR before I left was amazing—whenever I had a question, they got back to me super fast, which really helped calm any nerves and made the whole process smooth.

Childcare volunteering in Sri Lanka

  • October 2024
I signed up for the two-week childcare program in Sri Lanka with The Mighty Roar because my friend had participated and encouraged me to join. Initially, I was a bit nervous, as I had never considered traveling to that part of the world. However, the smooth pre-departure support quickly put me at ease. I loved helping out in the nursery, where we sang, danced, played with the children. It was so much fun and a privilege to help out in the classroom.

Helping sea turtles in Sri Lanka

  • September 2024
I signed up to the sea turtle conservation program for two weeks in Sri Lanka which was an incredible experience and was so ethical. My time in Sri Lanka was truly eye opening, being apart of local community in the village of Akurala. Overall I had a great experience and would definitely recommend this to anyone!

My medical elective in Sri Lanka

  • August 2024
I’ve had the time of my life volunteering in Sri Lanka throughout June. I took part in the medical programme which was very well organised and opened my eyes to the reality of the healthcare available within these communities. I definitely recommend The Mighty Roar Sri Lanka and a big thank you to Ayomi for welcoming me into her home with such care and kindness.

Helping steet dogs and sea turtles in Sri Lanka

  • July 2024
My daughter Lizzie and I travelled to Sri Lanka in June to do the street dog programme. We have travelled a lot in the past but it was honestly one of the best trips of our lives! If you love animals, you’ll love this programme! TMR were a great support before we even arrived, they gave us all the info we needed in advance and we used the WhatsApp groups to get tips and share ideas or solve issues with our fellow volunteers too.

TMR Sri Lanka sea turtles & dogs

  • June 2024
I went to Sri Lanka and did the sea turtle program and also helped on the street dog project. It was an amazing experience from start to finish. The highlight of my experience was seeing a female lay eggs. I have seen this so many times on the TV but to witness this with my own eyes was just an experience I will never forget! Sri Lanka it's self is a such a beautiful country all the locals are welcoming and kind. Thank you for an unforgettable experience. I have one regret not staying for longer!!

Sri Lanka travel & volunteer experience

  • February 2024
I volunteered on the Sri Lanka Experience Programme in August and was there for 3 weeks. It was my first solo trip outside of the UK; thankfully, I couldn't have chosen a better company to start my adventures with. During my time in Sri Lanka, I was able to get involved with so much, the local team were absolutely incredible and the other volunteers were super friendly. My overall experience was incredible; you really won't believe how quickly the time goes. To this day I still talk about it all the time. I've been inspired.

Jess's story

The best experience in Sri Lanka

  • January 2024
In April, I went to Sri Lanka on the 2 week Travel and Volunteer experience and had the BEST time! The experience was the perfect idea as it meant I could take part in a meaningful project while still getting to explore the beautiful country of Sri Lanka on my holiday from work. It was my first time travelling completely by myself and the team, both in the UK and in Sri Lanka, made it really easy for me. If you're in any doubt of going on a trip with TMR, this is your sign to do it! I'm so grateful to the whole team who gave me this incredible experience.

Two amazing weeks in Sri Lanka and I loved every moment

  • June 2023
I spent two amazing weeks in Sri Lanka and I loved every moment. During my time I was able to fully immerse in the incredible culture of the country and the local team made you feel welcome and were all there for any queries you had. I’m very grateful and thankful to TMR for making this experience unforgettable.

Olivia's story

Volunteering in Sri Lanka at 17 years old

  • April 2023
In April I spent two weeks volunteering in the turtle conservation program in Sri Lanka. At only 17 I was terrified to travel so far on my own, but it ended up being some of the best few weeks of my life! Sri Lanka as a country is incredible - the people are so friendly, the lifestyle is very relaxed and the food is amazing! The mighty roar team in Sri Lanka could not have been more welcoming, anything we needed help organising would be sorted straight away. This experience was a trip of a lifetime for me and hopefully I will go back one day!
