From Wikipedia

Workaway is a platform that allows members to arrange homestays, including food, in exchange for work. Volunteers or "workawayers", are expected to contribute a pre-agreed amount of time per day in exchange for lodging and food, which is provided by their host during the duration of the exchange, which can range from a few days to over a year. The opportunities on offer include gardening, animal-care, cooking and farming, as well as more specialist and niche help requests. Workaway is most popular with budget travellers, language learners, people focused on sustainable tourism, and people who want to become more immersed in local culture and traditions. Brexit has affected Workaway placements due to increased difficulty in obtaining work permits for the United Kingdom. In many cases, Workaway requires a work permit and cannot legally be done on a tourist visa. This has resulted in detention of participants by immigration authorities.
