Practical Volunteer Opportunities

We have up to 10 places available to become a Practical Volunteer with the Broads Authority volunteering with our Maintenance Team. The Practical Volunteer role is perfect for anybody eager to get outside and help the Broads National Park in a hands-on way. Duties can be as varied as responding to incidents (perhaps clearing a fallen tree or mending a quay heading) to more seasonal duties such as fen management through the winter months and in the summer months the removal of invasive plant species and footpath maintenance. It’s the perfect role for keeping fit and making friends. You’ll be supervised by our Maintenance Team staff and get out to some beautiful Broads sites, often not open to the public.

Education Volunteer Opportunities

Would you like to join our small team of Education Volunteers who assist our Education Officer in delivering outdoor environmental education sessions to young students in the Broads National Park? We are looking for good communicators who feel they can inspire a new generation of young people to care for the environment.

Groups are primary school age through to young adult and include children not in mainstream education. Practical activities may include pond dipping, leading environmental games, practical conservation activities, helping with bush craft, geocaching and map work activities.
