Volunteering Update

WELCOME

Steve DavisWell, it seems that Summer is here with it's typical British mix of hot sunny days and a few wet and cooler days thrown in for good measure. I have fingers crossed that all will be well for the Volunteer's BBQ on 3rd July!  I'll take a moment to clarify that the event is open to all of you, including those that have yet to actually get down to some volunteering!  Details of the event are included in this bulletin..

With exams coming to an end for some, and Uni finishing for the summer break it's time to think about what you will be doing for the next few months.  Based at our Urban Wildlife Centre in East Dorset, our new group could be just the thing for you!
