If  so, Dorset Wildlife Trust is offering you the chance to volunteer with them on Sunday 21st February on beautiful Brownsea Island in Poole Harbour. Young volunteers will spend the day learning about the surrounding environment and helping to protect the wildlife of the Island by taking part in conservation work.

Dorset Wildlife Trust manages just under half of the National Trust owned island as a nature reserve, including the internationally important lagoon, the pine woods that are home to Britain’s native red squirrel and the reedbeds and alder carr ­ haven for water voles, kingfishers and water rails.

Enhance your CV

Amanda Broom, People and Wildlife Officer at Dorset Wildlife Trust, said: “Volunteer
work is becoming increasingly important for young people, so don’t miss out on your chance to enhance your CV and stand out from the crowd! You will also be helping to protect the important habitats of this magical island for the future.”

Don't miss out! Book your place today

The Brownsea Youth Volunteering Day is on Sunday 21st February from 10am 3.30pm and, best of all, is completely FREE of charge, including lunch, refreshments and the boat to and from the island. All volunteers will receive a certificate to provide evidence of their hard work.  Thank you to Bournemouth University students.who have helped to organise this event.
