Volunteer with the Plymouth Woodland Project

Based in the School of Biological Sciences, the Plymouth Woodland Project is a citizen science project running a year-round programme to engage the public with woodland ecology and scientific research. 

We are looking for volunteers to help run outreach sessions with schools so we can reach more young people. In return you will receive training, excellent experience for your CV, and opportunities to develop your communication, leadership and taxonomy skills. You'll also have the opportunity to make a tangible difference to children's lives and how they respond to the natural world.
