Volunteer in the outdoors
Volunteer under the Countryside or Country Parks teams...or both!
If you love wildlife, being outdoors and are the type of person who longs to be messy in the mud, then we have volunteering opportunities for you...
There are so many benefits to becoming a Country Parks or Countryside volunteer. It can be a lovely way to make new friends, learn new skills and above all - it's great fun!
No previous experience needed, as training will be given.
Country Parks Event Volunteers
Volunteers wanted to help run exciting and varied events at Itchen Valley Country Park, on a casual adhoc basis. Could you be a friendly and welcoming face for families going on an adventure in the park? Or steward audiences coming to our outdoor shows? No experience needed, days and times will vary, you just need to be willing to be outside, whatever the weather.
Please read the role description before applying.
Applicants will be contacted to confirm they have been added to our pool of volunteers and then we’ll be in touch about individual events when help is needed.
If you are already registered with us e.g. as a volunteer with Countryside, Country Parks or Emergency Response already, then please email volunteer@eastleigh.gov.uk to have this opportunity added to your volunteer record, rather than completing the application form again.
