Nature-Force Midweek Workparties

If you have spare time during the week and enjoy being out in the countryside, why not join Nature-Force? Our 'Nature-Force' mid-week volunteer group operates on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays throughout the year. Transport is provided from Brandon Marsh Nature Centre at 9.00am with another pick-up on the way to the day's task, returning to Brandon for 3.30-4.00pm, weather permitting.


Nature-Force gives you the opportunity to learn a wide variety of conservation skills - such as fencing and wildlife surveying - with specially organised training days and includes visits to different Nature Reserves throughout Warwickshire.

 

Alternatively if you would like to join the Brandon Marsh Conservation Volunteers you can join the mid-week group on a Thursday run by Ken Bond, contact 024 7632 8785.

 

For further information on weekend work-parties and / or to book your place on the Nature-Force please ring the Reserves Team during office hours on 024 7630 8998.
