About this role
All midweek volunteer opportunities with our team of volunteers are available on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday each week and our practical work is very much seasoned focused ie during the autumn and winter we will be carrying out projects that focus on hedges, woodlands and wetlands during the spring and summer months our projects are more concerned with infrastructure work like mending gates/installing fences, improving access, wildflower meadow management, species ID work etc.
You will be supporting TCV in enabling people and communities to improve their health, prospects and outdoor places. Volunteering with TCV will provide a supportive environment where you will gain valuable practical experience, and have fun with some great people.
This volunteering is open to anyone 18 years of age and older.
