Ohh first post in this forum!
What voluntary things are you involved in?
Over the last year I've been involved in Bird Friendly Schools, at a local nature reserve and Volunteer & Farmer Alliance.
Millie & Fly the Border Collies
I've only been a RSPB member for a short while but I'm very keen to get involved and offer my services at one of my local reserves. I would ideally like to do something quite hands on, I recently inquired about a reception volunteer at the Fowlmere reserve but have yet had a reply but I will continue trying.
Hi Daniel
Are you still waiting for a reply from Fowlmere? If so please let me know and I will look into this for you.
Thanks for your intersest.

Yes I am, I would appreciate it if you could do that for me Alan
Many Thanks
Spoken to Doug, the warden at Fowlmere, and he will be in touch.
Best wishes
Much appreciated Alan and I'll look forward to hearing from him.
Regards Daniel

Hi Alan,
I'm still waiting to hear from Doug at Fowlmere, do you think I would just be better off ringing him?
Oh dear that's not very good on our part! I will remind Doug to make contact.
Just so you are not waiting on him his telephone number is 01763 208978.
Let me know if you have any problem making contact. Apologies again.

There is no need to be sorry in anyway. Doug emailed me earlier and said he will phone me soon regarding the volunteering. Sounds like he's been quite busy at Fowlmere lately and just honestly forgot.
Thanks for your help Alan.
Thanks for letting me know. Hope you enjoy your volunteering with us :-)
Hello I have recently become a member of the RSPB. I am going to part time hours at work and would love to get involved in some volunteer work in my free time. I live in Woodbridge, Suffolk, but have no idea how to go about getting work or who to contact. I have tried applying for a volunteer job but the email address was not valid. Also the application forms i get downloaded are for residential places. Please help me get involved. Many thanks.
