Volunteer

Help carry out vital conservation tasks on privately or publicly owned land holdings within Ouse Catchment, with the aim of improving land for wildlife to help nature’s recovery. The aim of helping to increase climate resilient habitats, create wildlife corridors and utilising nature-based solutions to help tackle pressing issues such as flooding. Tasks include tree planting, removal of non-native species, grassland management, woodland management, fencing, pond creation or restoration, and building leaky dams. 

Currently our tasks are mainly undertaking during the winter months, therefore there may be an extended period that we are not running tasks.
