Do you love nature, walking, and making a positive difference to others? We’re looking for friendly, community minded volunteers to help us keep our beautiful woodland and pathways safe, welcoming, and enjoyable for everyone who uses them from residents and visitors to our many dog walkers. It’s also a great opportunity to develop new skills, meet new people, and be part of a supportive village community. #wellbeing #CommunitySpirit

This is a lovely, outdoorsy role where you’ll be a reassuring presence around the village, helping people enjoy the woodland safely while supporting our conservation and wellbeing activities.

You’ll spend time walking the woodland trails, keeping an eye out for hazards, offering a warm hello to visitors, and helping residents feel confident and supported when out and about. You may also help with guided walks, light environmental care, and sharing simple information about the village and its pathways.

We’ll give you an induction and any training you need, and you’ll be part of a friendly, welcoming community. It’s a flexible role around 4–6 hours a week and perfect for someone who enjoys being outdoors, meeting people, and contributing to a place with a strong sense of community. And if you have a well behaved dog, they’re more than welcome to join you on your rounds.

If you’d like to spend more time in nature while making a genuine difference to the lives of our residents, we’d love to hear from you.
