Become a volunteer
Volunteer opportunities range from office support, conservation activities in parks, helping at our community fundraising events to assisting us at our Visitor Centre at Stour Valley Nature Reserve.

Parks in Mind Volunteer
As a Parks in Mind volunteer you’ll be joining a group of like-minded nature enthusiasts while supporting the maintenance of our parks. You’ll be getting active, improving your health and wellbeing, and learning new skills. Activities will include conservation, horticulture, cleaning and general park maintenance, all tasks will be tailored to your needs.
Our groups run in parks in Boscombe and Bournemouth on a weekly basis.

Kingfisher Barn Visitor Centre
We’re recruiting volunteers to help us run our Visitor Centre on the Stour Valley Nature Reserve. This may be helping to maintain our beautiful garden, welcoming visitors to the centre, helping with our small cafe or supporting our rangers with some of the fabulous events they put on for children and adults.
You’ll be meeting new people and talking about our fantastic nature reserve while learning new skills and supporting an amazing cause.

Events & Fundraising Supporter
We’re looking for enthusiastic, out-going people who’ll support us during our fundraising activities in Bournemouth’s parks. Throughout the summer we’ll be attending a number of fetes and family events and need extra help to man our stand.
You’ll be chatting to the public about our charity – no experience necessary as full training will be given. You don’t have to support the whole day, just a couple of hours will really help the team!
