How do I apply?

Answer

Download an application form or ring the office on 01582 720056 and ask for an information pack.  Please then fill it the form, and send the completed form with a £100 non-refundable contribution (deposit) to Mission Direct, 727 Capability Green, Luton, LU3 3LU with two colour passport size photographs. All cheques should be made payable to: Mission Direct. You can also contribute by credit card, through our website - www.missiondirect.org - if you pay income tax, please also fill in the Gift Aid form.   Please give details of a referee, some one who knows you well - ideally a church leader or if you do not know a church leader, a reference from an employer or a person who knows you well.   The liability form must also be signed. For applicants under the age of 18 this should be signed by a parent or guardian.  For all applicants under the age of 18 years at the date of outbound travel, a person must be identified going on the trip to act in "loco parentis’ and agree to do so.  In this case a "Parental/Guardian Consent Form" must also be completed and signed by the Parent/Guardian form will be requested.

Once we receive your application we will ring to welcome you and send you a confirmation letter. Please fill in the application form clearly, as some contact details and other important details can be hard to read.  Mission Direct will apply for your visa if required. For Sierra Leone we will advise you in good time and will need your passport in advance.
