How does getting muddy. making friends, getting fit and learning about nature conservation sound ?!
The RSPB and United Utilities at Dove Stone are looking for dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers to help with a whole range of tasks. We're looking for people who will help us with practical work tasks such as felling trees, planting wildflowers and putting in fences; with face-to-face visitor work, including showing visitors the Peregrine Falcons; with wildlife surveying, from birds to plants to mammals to insects; and with trail checking.
The RSPB and United Utilities partnership is in it’s fledgling stage right now so this is a chance to be involved right from the beginning.
What do you get in return ? We’ll offer you the opportunity to meet like minded people, learn about nature conservation, gain practical experience, see some fantastic wildlife as well as the opportunity to work in one of the most spectacular landscapes in the Peak District. Plus volunteering with us is good for fitness - it has to beat going down the gym any day !
If you want to be involved or just want to find out more then feel free to contact Mags Martinez-Alzate on 01457 899614. You don’t need any experience in volunteering, practical tasks or in visitor work just lots of enthusiasm.

I would like to help in some way, but I am unsure if I could comit on an ongoing basis, is it possible to volunteer for one off projects.
