Volunteering variety
National Trust for Scotland Conservation Volunteers work all year round to support our charity’s efforts to care for Scotland’s natural treasures. The summer season of projects has now been announced and are open to all to take part.
Becoming a Conservation Volunteer gives participants the opportunity to learn new skills, work in some of Scotland’s most beautiful locations and play their part in protecting Scotland’s national and natural treasures.
The programmes vary for each of the five groups, but activities often include removing invasive species, building animal hides or homes, and undertaking footpath maintenance.
