Volunteer with us | Sussex Wildlife Trust

Volunteering is a chance to make a positive contribution to improving your local area, learning new skills, making new friends and sharing or increasing your knowledge of nature conservation and Sussex, whether you can spare a few hours or a full day.

There are plenty of opportunities available, from practical conservation, working with children, supporting our events or offering your specific skills to make a difference. You don’t need to make a regular weekly commitment to be a volunteer but you will need to register after your first taster session.

Please visit our our Frequently Asked Questions about volunteering.
