I'm not seeing anything that looks like a scam at first glance. It doesn't seem like a particularly appealing deal to me, but that's another matter entirely. Full-time volunteer work for room and board is not that hard to find--there's not much to be gained by paying £650-850 for the privilege. Volunteer teaching opportunities are plentiful in India. I can't see that this organization is offering anything to sweeten the deal.
Another approach is to choose a location that appeals to you, and just go. Settle into an inexpensive hotel for a few weeks. Use that £850 for living expenses; it will take you a long way. Ask around--chances are you'll have a dozen or more (possibly MANY more) opportunities to choose from. You can then investigate them firsthand, and choose the best fit.
