About the event

February half term is the perfect time to be outdoors, blow away the cobwebs, get moving and take some action for nature. Join our nature reserves team and volunteer group for a fantastic day out on the hills

Meet us in our car park where we will gather all the tools and equipment we need to head out to the hills.

Work gloves and tools will be provided just make sure you have a packed lunch and a drink, wear study footwear and a coat that is appropriate for the weather. 

16 and 17 year olds who live at home need to fill in a parental consent form, email us or fill one in on the day. 

The event is FREE

No booking required, just turn up at 10am, if you are running late give us a call so we know to wait for you. Ring Sarah: 07419834600

Know before you go

The volunteering day is unfortunately not accessible for people in a wheelchair as we will have to trek over fields off paths. We want to make sure the day is inclusive for people so if you have any health issues or additional needs that we should be aware of then get in touch for a chat.

There are toilets including an accessible toilet and baby changing facilities.

Any questions big or small, please do not hesitate to get in touch with our Wilder Communities Youth Engagement Officer,  Sarah : sarah.goldsmith@ywt.org.uk
