Thank you for your interest in Surrey Wildlife Trust. Volunteer recruitment is temporarily paused during May while we update our systems. Please check back in a couple of weeks for updates.
How can you help wildlife?
We have a range of volunteering opportunities at the Trust to get involved in throughout the county, from outdoor and practical volunteering, to working with children or helping us in our offices. Whether you can spare a few hours or a full day, or whether you can volunteer occasionally or regularly, becoming a Surrey Wildlife Trust volunteer makes a huge difference for nature and people.
Celebrating our volunteers
Volunteers have been at the heart of Surrey Wildlife Trust for nearly 70 years
From restoring habitats on our reserves and caring for livestock, to inspiring future nature champions through education and community work and keeping the wheels turning behind the scenes with administration and membership support, your contribution makes a vital difference to Surrey’s wildlife.
We are deeply grateful to all our volunteers and strive to recognise and celebrate everyone's efforts.
