Pembrokeshire Coast National Park - Flexible & Micro Volunteering

Pembrokeshire Coast National Park offers a range of flexible and micro volunteering opportunities designed to fit around your schedule. Flexible opportunities include longer-term volunteer roles such as Tree Warden (checking and reporting on special trees, encouraging planting) and Heritage Monitor (recording and helping to conserve heritage assets) with training provided for some roles.

Volunteers benefit from being part of the National Park volunteer family while choosing times that suit them. Micro volunteering consists of short, informal tasks that require no registration and can be done alone, with friends or family, or as part of a community group.

Examples include contributing wildlife records to the LookWild iNaturalist project, taking photographs for the Changing Coasts recording work, and opportunistic litter picking when visiting beaches, parks or picnic areas. Micro volunteering is presented as a simple, accessible way for people of all ages to help build knowledge about local wildlife and support conservation.

How to get involved varies by activity: for LookWild download the iNaturalist app, join the LookWild project and upload observations; for litter picking you can borrow equipment from Oriel y Parc or local leisure centres. Full details and links are provided on the National Park website.
