Evening volunteering sessions

New evening opportunities for getting hands-on in the Forest

Join us in the evenings to get hands-on in the Forest. Spend time in the natural environment, learn new skills, keep fit, and make new friends, with a social sit-down at the end of each session.

Take part in activities focused on conservation and wildlife protection, contributing to the preservation and enhancement of our natural environment. Evening sessions run from June to September, at various locations in the Forest including near Alcester and Stratford upon Avon.

Ideal for busy schedules 

These sessions are perfect for those who want to support the Forest but are unable to volunteer during the day or at weekends. Whether you can join just one session or all of them, your contribution will be greatly appreciated. There’s a specific focus on meeting new people and connecting with the environment, whilst helping to nurture the Forest.
