Volunteer With Us
Help us open up the outdoors for LGBTQIA+ adults and their allies. Volunteering with Oot & Aboot is a rewarding way to give your time, share your skills, and be part of a welcoming and inclusive community.
Why volunteering matters
Oot & Aboot Outdoors is a registered charity run almost entirely by volunteers. From planning hikes and camping trips to supporting new members on their first adventure, our volunteers are the heartbeat of everything we do.
Whether you have a weekend to spare each month or just a few hours a season, there is a place for you here. We welcome people of all fitness levels, backgrounds, and outdoor experience — what matters most is your openness to making new connections and a willingness to try new experiences.
More than just giving back
Volunteering with us comes with its own rewards — from the friendships you'll form to the trails you'll explore together.
Get outdoors
Be first in line for our walks, hikes, and camping trips — and help shape the experiences that make them special.
Build community
Connect with a welcoming, queer-centred outdoor community. Friendships made here at Oot last long after the campfire has gone out.
Share old skills, learn new ones
Whether you're a first-aider, a social media whiz, a logistics legend, or a natural guide — we have a role for you.

The gear gets carried, the dinner gets cooked, and somebody remembers to check that the quiet person is okay. That's volunteering here.Oot & Aboot Outdoors
