About Us

The Raleigh Global Alliance

The Raleigh Global Alliance are active and independent national societies made up of alumni from the former charity Raleigh International. The Global alliance of over 15 countries forms a network of committed changemakers who collaborate on and initiate programmes and campaigns which are helping to build a greener and fairer world.

What do National Societies do?

Raleigh alumni societies achieve incredible things including leading on environmental campaigns, supporting local community initiatives, and raising funds for Raleigh Tanzania and Raleigh Costa Rica. Whether you’re looking to reconnect with Raleigh people where you are, or have recently returned from your Expedition, you can find contact details for all our national societies below.

Raleigh International legacy

Raleigh International (formerly Operation Drake (1978 - 80), Operation Raleigh (1984 - 88) and Raleigh International (1992 - 2022)) was a youth-driven organisation supporting a global movement of young people to take action on the issues they care about. Raleigh worked globally to promote the role of young people in decision making and civil society, creating meaningful youth employment and enterprise, protecting vulnerable environments, and ensuring the right to safe water and sanitation.
