Why We Need Volunteers
The partnership between staff and volunteers is fundamental to the work of the Sussex Wildlife Trust.
To remain at the forefront of Sussex conservation and achieve our many targets, volunteer input is essential. Volunteers make a considerable contribution to our success, doubling the amount of work that we accomplish. The enthusiasm, commitment, experience and skills that volunteers contribute make them one of our most valuable resources.
How Can You Help?
Be it three days a year or several times a week the level of commitment is up to you. Whatever you feel you can offer will be a vital contribution to our work. There are a wide variety of volunteer opportunities available at the Trust ranging from office based administration at our Woods Mill headquarters to hands-on practical conservation in one of the nature reserves managed by the Trust. We always listen to you as a volunteer and seek to match your interests and skills to a job within the Trust.
