What's involved?
You can commit to as much or as little time as you like, we have volunteers who we see once a year and those we see more than once a week. Whatever your commitment we really value your help.
Conservation volunteer task days run on the first Thursday of every month, and tasks vary from coppicing in the winter to mowing, raking and planting in the summer.
No experience is necessary, and all tools and personal protective equipment is provided. Free tea and coffee is provided for all volunteers.
Any tools and training you may need are provided.
