There is no "volunteer visa" as far as I am aware. There is a "visitor visa" for a maximum of 6 months and that carries a "no work" condition. Volunteer activities are only available under circumstances where nobody WOULD ever be paid, even if they had the right to be. Be very careful about what constitutes "work". There is no progression from "visitor" to "worker".

Agreed with the above - there's no such visa.
