Volunteering opportunities

Throughout the year there will be opportunities to volunteer at the University's Forest and Peatland sites. Local residents, community groups, students and staff are welcome. Opportunities can be found on this page, which will be regularly updated.

We currently do not have any volunteering opportunities but we will be back in Spring 2026. You can sign up to the mailing list below and you will be notified via email when we have events and volunteering days.

You can see photos of our past volunteer events in the Volunteering section of our Story Maps.
