Education and events volunteers needed at Severn Valley Country Park

Do you enjoy the outdoors and want to inspire young people to learn about the environment?

Shropshire Council’s outdoor partnerships team at Severn Valley Country Park (between Bridgnorth and Kidderminster) are recruiting event and education volunteers to help rangers with a busy event and education programme at the country park.

With over 50 schools visiting every year and a busy events calendar, potential volunteers will get the chance to help with activities such as pond dipping, minibeast hunts, orienteering, nature crafts and large scale events such as our annual 10k run.

The role of Education and Events Volunteer will require individuals to undergo a Disclosure Barring Service Check provided by Shropshire Council, and will need to complete a volunteer registration form.

If you wish to find out more please call 01746 781192 and speak to James Brookes or Sarah Fortune who will be pleased to meet with you to tell you more.

People are also welcome to join our Thursday conservation volunteers which meet every Thursday 9am – 3.30pm. Venues do vary, so please call for further information.
