Work parties
Come and join one of our many midweek or weekend work parties for a wildlife work-out. These take place on many of our nature reserves, as well as other sites across the three counties.
It’s a good way to get some fresh air, keep fit and make a difference for local wildlife. Generally no skills are needed as training and tools are provided. You will need to wear suitable outdoor clothing and footwear and bring something to eat and drink. Latecomers will usually find arrows that lead to the days work.
For detailed work party information please follow the link for Events and get working out for wildlife! Alternatively, please get in touch with us at your nearest Trust office, follow the link for employee volunteering opportunities or look at the list below for what is happening near you.
