The Finemere Wood volunteers tackle the final winter task, and reflect on the many contributions one of the original team

Conservation intern Robert Cooke explains how he hacks at hedgerows to create wildlife super-highways.

The volunteers return to the woods from their Christmas break enticed by the promise of things to come, and a slice of cake

"we return to work on the drovers’ track for the final work party of the year, our favourite place."

If you've ever wondered what a volunteer for BBOWT does, Simon Cousins describes his varied roles at Chimney Meadows nature reserve

It's time to create woodland scallops that will kickstart new growth, new habitats, and a greater abundance and medley of life.

What's the appeal of volunteering here? “Exercise, companionship, contributing to the sustainability of nature and wildlife and most of all, meeting other like-minded people."
