Volunteer roles for the Environment sector

This is a fantastic role to get involved locally and be at the forefront of solutions to help save nature in your community. It is an opportunity to try new things and use your skills to make a valuable contribution to the work of your RSPB Local Group. We are a friendly and supportive team, so you will get the chance to build new relationships and meet new faces.

You will be leading the group in developing a range of activities designed to encourage wide participation from the group membership and to attract new group members, as well as heading the committee comprising individuals which assist with the running of the group and the activities which we run. You will have the support of Area/Country offices, and HQ.

RSPB Crawley and Horsham Local Group plays a vital role supporting the RSPB locally through a mixture of inspiring talks, guided walks and trips, and other events. This volunteer led group provides a focal point to meet friendly and like-minded people, while learning more about birds and wildlife. For the smooth running of the group we have regular committee meetings and you will need to:

• Take minutes at meetings of the local group committee.
• Disseminate agendas prior to meetings, and actions following meetings.
• Share other information among committee members before and after meeting.

Our groups are entirely volunteer run and led. They are in the front line of engagement with local people, with an extensive programme of walks, talks, day trips and indoor meetings for the group and members of the public. We're looking for people who are passionate about connecting people with nature and helping in the smooth running of the group. By becoming part of the group, you'll have the chance to use your existing skills (and learn new ones) to build the group and make it an ever more important aspect of local RSPB connections with people. The roles available will depend on the group and can include:

• Publicity and / or social media
• Website editor
• Helping with organising and running events

Being a community group, you'll also have the opportunity to make new friends, have fun, and know you are enthusing people about the joys of nature. All you need is a willingness and ability to help with one or more of the varied activities of our RSPB groups, and able to give a minimum of a few hours each month. We have groups across the UK (see our map to find your nearest group). Feel free to contact your local group direct or go along to an event or two to find out more. If you can't find a group near you and would like to help set one up, please click on "Ask a question".

Notes: This opportunity is not based on a reserve and may not include practical conservation work. It is also not suitable for work experience. However it can usually be customised to your skills, experience and requirements depending on your situation.

We are committed to better reflecting society within our workforce and are keen to encourage more applications from people from black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds, people with disabilities and younger people.

Would you like to help govern and shape the work of your local Wildlife Trust whilst being part of a federation of 46 Wildlife Trusts in the UK and Wildlife Trusts Wales?

We are looking for people who share our vision and commitment of nature recovery to take up vacant positions on Gwent Wildlife Trust’s board of trustees. In particular, we are looking for a Company Secretary as well as trustees with financial oversight skills to succeed to Treasurer, however these are not the only requirements, applications for general trustee positions are also welcome.

· Are you committed to protecting and restoring our natural world?

· Do you enjoy working as part of a diverse team?

· Do you share our core values of commitment, integrity and inclusiveness?

· Are you willing to play your part in collaborating with other Wildlife Trusts?

· And are you able to give at least half a day of your time each month as a volunteer?

We’d love to hear from you if so.

Our activities and the communities we serve across Gwent are diverse and we want our Board to reflect this, and include a diversity of gender, colour, age, ethnicity, physical ability, sexual orientation and religious belief. We particularly need people with specific skills or experience including financial, secretarial, legal, governance, fundraising/marketing, people engagement, business and social partnerships, farming and conservation.

The Board is responsible for governance and the strategic matters facing the Trust, including finance and funding, programme development and HR with operational matters delegated to the CEO and our professional and committed staff team. Our Board meets every two months; a mix of in person and remotely or hybrid. Trustees need to devote some time in advance of these to read relevant papers so they can ask questions and provide strategic direction on plans and issues. In addition there are sub committees where trustees advise staff on key policy and operational matters.

If you join us, you will be part of a friendly and positive group of Trustees, helping to ensure a better future for the wildlife and people of Gwent as well as contribute to the Federation of Wildlife Trusts’ 2030 Strategy.

The Trust is a charity and a Company Limited by Guarantee. Trustees must be members of the Trust. Trustee appointments are voluntary and decided by the Trustees following a process outlined in our constitutional document.

Join The Orchard Project as a Trustee to help grow thriving urban orchards, tackle climate change, boost biodiversity, and empower communities across the UK.

Applications close: 9 a.m. Tuesday 6th May 2025.

Location: Remote/London EC2A 3EQ

Time commitment: Half day per month

About The Orchard Project

The Orchard Project is the UK’s only national charity dedicated to creating, maintaining, and celebrating community orchards. Our vision is for everyone in urban areas to be within walking distance of a thriving orchard where people and nature can flourish together.

Once a significant part of the UK’s landscape, many orchards have been lost due to urban development. We are bringing them back — especially in areas with little green space, helping communities reconnect with nature, improve biodiversity, and tackle climate change. Through planting, training, and advocacy, we empower people to care for orchards long-term, ensuring they become lasting, productive spaces for food, wildlife, and well-being.

We focus on reaching those most in need, including people on low incomes, individuals with mental health challenges, and pupils in inner-city schools. Our work spans London, Swansea, Manchester, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, and we continue to grow.

At The Orchard Project, we are as committed to building a diverse, inclusive organisation as we are to creating resilient, biodiverse orchards. By working together, we can create greener, healthier, and more connected urban communities.

About the roles

As a trustee of The Orchard Project, you will play a vital role in shaping the strategic direction of the UK’s only national charity dedicated to community orchards. Your leadership and expertise will help us expand our impact, strengthen governance, and drive innovation in urban greening and community engagement.

Your contribution will directly support our mission to bring thriving community orchards to urban areas, tackle climate change, increase biodiversity, and improve well-being.

By guiding our strategy, expanding our reach, and ensuring financial resilience, you will help create a more sustainable, inclusive, and connected society — one orchard at a time.

Who we are looking for

We seek passionate, strategic, and forward-thinking individuals who can bring diverse perspectives and expertise to our board. You will be committed to environmental and social change, have strong strategic thinking, and be able to constructively challenge conventional ideas.

With a passion for equity, diversity, and inclusion, you will champion these values within our organisation. Strong networking and relationship-building skills, alongside the ability to provide governance oversight and contribute to effective decision-making, will be key to this role.

You may have connections in philanthropy, corporate partnerships, or funding sectors — or be experienced in business development, finance, fundraising, or innovation with an interest in environmental sustainability, biodiversity, or community engagement.

While prior leadership, governance, or advisory experience is welcomed, we also encourage first-time trustees to apply. We are especially keen to hear from individuals from racially diverse backgrounds, younger candidates and those looking for their first trustee role as we work to make our board more representative and inclusive.

We recognise the importance of supporting trustees and offer training, a buddy system, and financial recognition for your time.

Please click 'Apply via website’ to be redirected to the Peridot Partners website, where you can find full details of the candidate profile and register your interest to apply.

Applications for these roles close at 9 a.m. Tuesday 6th May 2025.
