We're growing a team of volunteer ‘Everyday Nature Heroes’ who will encourage and help people in their communities to experience and benefit from wildlife in local parks and outdoor spaces.
We have developed activities which you will be trained to use and demonstrate to families and communities in outdoor spaces. We also have equipment that you can borrow to help with engagement. We will welcome your ideas and skills too.
If you have a few spare hours, love meeting new people and want to find out more about local wildlife, we'd love to hear from you.
Approved expenses will be reimbursed.
The RSPB is a nature conservation charity that advocates for birds and wildlife, addressing the problems that threaten our environment. We focus on four key areas:
- We protect the special habitats that wildlife needs to survive and restore them where they have been lost. To achieve this, we protect and manage over 200 nature reserves across the UK, including Middleton Lakes & Sandwell Valley in the West Midlands.
- We work to restore lost and threatened species by understanding their needs for thriving and creating spaces for them to flourish, for example by advocating for Swift-friendly buildings in the West Midlands
- We connect people with nature by creating opportunities for individuals to experience wildlife first hand through public events, educational and training programmes, and volunteer opportunities at our nature reserves.
- We aim to save the environment by working to mitigate the impacts of climate change and helping wildlife adapt. We campaign on a range of issues to influence decision-makers and ensure that nature’s voice is heard.
