touraid offers free support to UK schools and clubs wishing to host activity based tours for disadvantaged children from overseas. The duration of the tour is usually between 5 - 8 days, and although initially based on rugby, touraid is now expanding its activity base to include almost any popular sport and cultural activity for boys or girls that the hosts and visiting children can participate in together.
touraid can offer help by:
- identifying suitable visiting groups
- organising flights and visas
- providing fundraising ideas and support
- offering full administration support including CRB's for host parents
- experience gained from organising 36 tours for over 440 children

- Complete ownership for pupils, parents and staff
- Creating long term relationships
- Huge social capital benefits
- Positive PR exposure for the school
- Opportunities for teacher exchange
