The role supports the care and restoration of this important nature reserve, helping to maintain the site’s special features for the future.
Volunteer tasks can include scrub clearance, coppicing, pollarding and fencing. The work is hands-on and outdoors, so it suits people who are happy working in all weathers, can use basic hand tools, and are comfortable working both independently and as part of a team.
