Volunteer With Us

Our volunteers help Birmingham and the Black Country’s wildlife to thrive – without them we wouldn't be able to continue protecting and enhancing nature.

Whether you're a nature novice or an ecology expert, everyone is welcome to get involved!

You can meet like-minded people, make friends, gain new skills from qualified professionals and learn all about our native wildlife. It is a great opportunity to work towards a career in conservation or to play your own part in helping to protect our wildlife.

With so much to get involved in, we are sure that we have something for you.

You could be spending an afternoon on a wildlife canal safari on our eco-friendly boat, the Poly Roger, removing litter from this precious habitat, or enjoying the breathtaking views of the Rowley Hills whilst managing wildflower meadows. You could even be sheltering in one of our shady woodlands, propagating native flower species as part of our Growing Local Flora project or trying your hand at winter coppicing. 

Our volunteering activities are seasonal and dependent on site, however, there is always something fun to be getting stuck into.

• Firstly, you need to register as a volunteer – once we’ve received your registration we’ll be in touch to have a chat.
