Practical tasks run every Tuesday and Thursday and occasional Saturdays meeting at Swallwell Visitor Centre. From here we can transport you to the various task sites through the Borough in our new minibus!
All volunteers are welcome – you don’t need any prior experience as training can be given.
Applicants must be over 18. For families and young people interested in taking part in practical conservation work you can also take part in some of the occasional conservation projects that take place in the Borough. For more information see the Outdoor Events leaflet in libraries or contact the numbers shown on the contacts page|
As volunteers sometimes work alongside schools and vulnerable adults, applicants need to complete a Criminal Records Bureau check before being accepted onto the scheme. For more information about the scheme please contact the Countryside volunteer Coordinator.
