Residential volunteering

Residential volunteering is your chance to have a break, try something new or get some experience for your CV.

There are over 40 different places to stay and hundreds of things to do. You can spend a week or more on a reserve, and you can do it alone or bring a friend.

We'll provide you with accommodation, new skills and some great memories.

Browse through the opportunities further down the page to see what takes your fancy. If you'd prefer a Highland adventure to a long stay in Suffolk, you can filter the opportunities using the location button.

If you'd like a taster of what it's like to be a residential volunteer, you can watch this short video:

The highlight of my time was monitoring the avocets - watching them pair up and nest. Seeing that first chick totter out of the nest was incredible. This is what wardening is all about, and what makes it so special.
