AS A WWOOF VOLUNTEER YOU MUST AGREE TO THIS COMMITMENT
- In the interest of safety, I shall use the WWOOF website as a means for communicating with hosts and with WWOOF Ireland I shall not use it for any means other than for WWOOF business.
- I will approach WWOOFing with a willingness to learn and accept guidance from my host bearing in mind they will have much more experience than I have.
- I appreciate that as a guest I should show respect for their home, house rules (the use of handheld devices, time spent in the shower etc) and for the different points of view my host may have.
- I will be prepared to give my time and effort and I understand that at times if my host is busy, I may need to complete tasks alone and without supervision.
- I recognise that some tasks may be hard or dirty and that I may be asked to help in all weathers, so will endeavour to bring warm and waterproof clothes for my own comfort and well being.
- I will discuss my hours of volunteering with my host and arrange with them when I shall be having time off. I shall not take time off unless agreed with my host.
- I shall not cancel my stay without good reason and not at short notice. Neither will I leave earlier than arranged without discussing my intentions with my host, except under extreme circumstances.
- I shall have appropriate insurance cover for the types of activities I may be asked to do.
- I will be responsible for investigating entry requirements into Ireland and have the appropriate papers for Immigration Control.
- I am aware that I need to have a degree of financial security (either access to a credit card or sufficient funds in the bank) to cover me for any unexpected expenses which may occur.
- I will travel in the spirit of humanity and with a genuine desire to learn more about the people and the culture of Ireland
