Be outdoors

If being outdoors is your thing, you could play a vital role in the management of our green spaces.

We’re out in every season, whatever the weather – from coppicing in the autumn to scything in the summer, from maintaining the gardens at Earth Trust HQ to carrying out wildlife surveys.

Take a look at the ‘Be outdoors’ roles …

  • Forester

    If you enjoy the outdoors, want to learn new skills and be part of our ranger team, why not get involved with your local forest?

  • Education gardener

    We need volunteers to help maintain the Earth Trust Kitchen Garden, an important living resource for our education programme.

  • Community warden

    Volunteer wardens help us care for and monitor our community reserves across South Oxfordshire.

  • Centre maintenance

    Help keep the Earth Trust Centre well maintained and assist with general maintenance tasks.

  • Centre gardener

    Help make the Earth Trust Centre gardens and grounds inspiring and educational.

  • Butterfly surveyor

    Butterflies are a valuable indicator species and can often tell us more about the state of their habitats. Could you help us capture this valuable data?

  • Land management

    Volunteers play a vital role in the management of our sites, over 1,200 acres around Little Wittenham, Wallingford, Abingdon and Didcot.
