We welcome new volunteers!
Volunteering with the BCT is a wonderful way to make friends, get to know the Basel area, foster a sense of community, and network with others. It can make integrating into Basel and the family community fun and easy. You do not have to be a parent in order to volunteer. We welcome anyone with a bit of free time and enthusiasm for the family community in Basel. For the main volunteer positions shown above we do ask that you commit to a time period of 8 months or longer. If you are interested in volunteering on a short term basis feel free to get in touch about volunteering for special events or other short term tasks.
The BCT is a 100% volunteer run group All our committee members, playgroup coordinators and neighborhood coordinators give their time and energy for free. Without them, the BCT would not exist!

We are an international community! You don’t need to be a native English speaker, but all of our meetings, playgroups and events are conducted in English. Therefore volunteers just need to have a level of English that enables volunteers to communicate with each other and potentially with members and business partners.
This varies greatly depending on the role. It could be anywhere from 8 hours a week to 2 hours a month, depending on your involvement and your role.
