We are an active group of people making a practical contribution to nature conservation in Hampshire. Most weekends we carry out practical tasks, such as woodland management, path work, fencing, heath and downland management, hedge laying and pond restoration. The majority of our work is for various charities, such as Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust and local councils. You can learn how to use a variety of traditional and modern tools, learn how the countryside is managed, visit out of the way places and begin to appreciate our vast diversity of wildlife.
N.B. When registering your interest, please state the reasons you are registering for the role in the 'notes' section.
