Volunteer

VOLUNTEER

If you'd like to help your local environment, why not join our enthusiastic team of volunteers?

We run regular work parties at our nature reserves and sometimes at other places in the Wychwood Forest area. 

Wigwell, Charlbury: 2nd Wednesday of each month, 10am–12.30pm

Gibbets Close, Witney: 3rd Tuesday of each month, 10am - 12.30pm

 

Foxburrow Wood, Hailey: last Thursday of each month, 10am–12.30pm

We also offer volunteering opportunities with our specialist flora, dry stone walling, and hedgelaying groups. 

Please note: if you are considering joining one of our regular work parties for the first time, it is always a good idea to give Toby a ring on 07561 639094 to check whether it is going ahead. For example, there will be no volunteer work parties between 3rd - 17th September 2024 as Toby is away on leave.
