Financial Support for Volunteers
We’re primarily a volunteer organisation. On some occasions we offer part-time paid roles, occasionally full-time. Typically though, people join as volunteers in a full-time, part-time or casual capacity. We are able to direct volunteers to a grant-making organisation that can help them meet their basic needs. Others have found, or worked with us to find, other creative solutions to volunteer. Whatever your background, whether you have dependents or special circumstances, we should be able to find a way together – talk to us and we can discuss what support we can offer.

Our Team
We have a passionate and dedicated team who will work alongside you to help you unlock your full potential.
Our Home
Our team is based in Lancaster, England. We chose to build Animal Think Tank in Lancaster due to the city’s progressive roots, rich culture and history, national reputation and affordability. We generally expect our members to be based in Lancaster.
Diversity
We are a diverse group and we intend to expand in the same way. We encourage people from all walks of life to apply. Having a range of people on our team, with different backgrounds, experiences, identities, viewpoints and beliefs, matters to us deeply. We believe our differences and uniqueness make us stronger. Having a diverse team will also help us build a freedom movement that is representative and welcoming of all sections of society.
Resources
If you are interested in joining us, you may want to engage with some of the books which have influenced our thinking in the Animal Think Tank Reading List.
