  Welcome to Your Safe Planet

Lou and Emer wanted to visit the Philippines and give something back. They were expecting to pay thousands but then they found out about  locally-run projects through Your Safe Planet....

They spent two weeks with Hands on Manila, a locally-run and owned charity with important social goals.

"We had a fantastic trip and we have nothing negative to say! It was fantastic.

As two trainee lawyers based in Dublin, we were lucky enough to spend time moonlighting as employees of Hands On Manila (“HOM”), a charity which is committed to empowering individuals to act as citizens and realize their ability to contribute to the community in meaningful ways. It was their flexible approach to volunteering which initially attracted us to volunteer with them. We found that most organisations were demanding in terms of the amount of time they required volunteers to give, however HOM were enthusiastic about our visit regardless of the amount of time we could offer. They gave us a real and substantial insight into their work in the 2 weeks we spent with them." Read their volunteering report here

ABOUT US

 
The global village is finally a reality with the exciting arrival of Your Safe Planet (YSP), a ground-breaking ethical new website extending the trusted 'travellers grapevine' to every corner of the globe.

YSP’s extended family of cherry-picked local people will help you plan your trip in advance by email and on arrival will lend a hand as much or as little as you desire. YSP saves time and money, fast tracks you to a destination’s seminal cultural experiences, and provides an all-important safety net.   And at a starting cost of less than £4 a month – most of which goes to our local “YSPerson” - it has to be the best value since the invention of plasters!! Cheap, easy, safe.

With YSP you have access to a world of local knowledge, meaning you never miss out on the best bits of a country. YSP also allows you to be a more responsible traveller  - we ensure your money is going to the right places and that your environmental footprint is as small as possible. Just by supporting YSP you are supporting ethical travel.
 
All you have to do is decide where you want to go and get in touch with our YSPerson there, all via our easy-to-use website. The subscription money you pay for each country goes mainly to the person on the ground, however we do retain some money to boost and grow our network. We do not take any commissions from payment for services provided abroad. Once you pay for a YSP subscription we can guarantee you will make back this money within the first fews days abroad, just by knowing how to live like a local.
 
If there is somewhere you want to visit that's not on the list, then just get in touch with us and we will see if we know someone there we can put you in touch with - chances are we'll know someone who can help.
 



So go! Travel! Have the time of your life, just don't forget to tell us about it when you get back....

........if you ever decide to come back that is!
