WHAT YOU CAN DO
VOLUNTEER
The Good Chance family wouldn’t be complete without the hundreds of brilliant people who have so generously volunteered their time and passion to create new kinds of communities that connect people, stories and cultures from across the world. Find out about current opportunities below.
Beyond what happens in front of the audience, our work relies on countless people behind the scenes: from those with technical knowledge of working with wood, metal, electronics and engineering, to people who can help signpost and spread the word about what’s going on.
Since 2015 we’ve worked with almost 500 volunteers globally! Whether that’s putting up Domes and bringing them to life in Calais, Paris, Coventry and Sheffield through sharing their artistic skills and meeting new people from across the world. Or helping us make and fly Afghan kites and spark new conversations during Fly With Me. From translators and copy editors, to the people who helped Little Amal make her way across Turkey and through Europe, we’re SO immensely grateful for their generosity and support.
If you believe that through theatre, dance, music, puppets, juggling, drawing and other arts we can explore the world in new ways and create a better one together, this is a very good place to do it.
Good Chance volunteers come from all walks of life, united by the shared belief that art can foster community and connection. If you want to get involved, please let us know!

“Thank you for enabling me to have this quite frankly life changing week with Good Chance. What you have set up is unwaveringly brilliant. Out of all of my volunteering experience, there is no doubt Good Chance is doing the most meaningful work.

“I was really low when I came to Good Chance. And now I’m the happiest! I got my smile back and it’s because of volunteering at Good Chance. Now I want to stay in the field where people matter, where help is really needed. Thank you for showing me my path...”
- Good Chance Paris Volunteer
“What the Good Chance people do with theatre with refugees is beautiful and incredibly important. During my time volunteering I met wonderful people and I learnt new things, but what stayed with me from the experience was that the process, the work we all did together, showed me that however much there is to separate us, to differentiate us as human beings, there is much more that unites us. And this idea, which is at the core of all Good Chance's work, is why it's such an important and worthy organisation. If you have the opportunity to join them, do so. You won't regret it.”
- Alfie Enoch, Actor and Volunteer
