Volunteering and Community Woodlands

Many of our important countryside sites in the Hampshire are maintained with the help of volunteers. Not only is volunteering fun, it gives you the opportunity to meet new people and gain new skills at the same time as carrying out valuable work to protect and enhance our natural heritage There are plenty of volunteer opportunities in Hampshire's woodlands.
