What's going on Volunteer Tasks Help us look after the Forest of Marston Vale Volunteers are a huge part of our work force - we couldn't manage our sites without them. We have regular, practical tasks for our volunteers where all tools and info are provided - all you need to do is let us know that you're coming along, wear old clothes and strong footwear! What to do Due to COVID 19 restrictions, we will be limiting numbers on tasks. Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. Let the person organising the task know that you are coming by the Tuesday evening. Parking charges do not apply when volunteering, so make sure that you give your registration number when you sign in for this task to be white-listed for the day. We cannot provide hot drinks and biscuits from the barn currently but there will be free tea and coffee vouchers for the Lakeside Cafe provided.

The more people that get involved, the quicker we'll be able to plant 5 million more trees and that can only be a good thing. Not just for the local area but for the planet. Manage Cookie Preferences
