The Conservation Officer organises all the practical conservation workdays and contacts volunteers as and when the jobs are happening.

People who have been out of work for six months or more can join our Breakthrough Environmental Skills Training (BEST) Scheme and gain environmental qualifications through the Open College Network (OCN).
