Wildlife Conservation Volunteer (Faughan Valley)

Are you passionate about conservation and would like to join a group of like-minded people to make a difference to your local woodland? The Faughan Valley runs from the foothills of the Sperrin Mountains along the beautiful River Faughan to the outskirts of Derry-Londonderry, covering some 80 square miles. Join our Wildlife Conservation group and help us on a variety of activities, including helping us conduct surveys on trees and wildlife, being our eyes and ears of the site, reporting any interesting wildlife or maintenance issues, and helping us with practical tasks such as tree planting or invasive species control. This volunteer role will contribute towards the Woodland Trust’s strategy of preserving, growing, maintaining and restoring woods and trees across the UK.

You will need to have access to a phone, internet, an email address and appropriate clothing for the task and weather conditions, including sturdy footwear. This group usually meets on one Saturday and one Wednesday per month, so availability on these days is essential.
