Join our volunteers of all ages and backgrounds from 9am to 4pm any Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday to carry out practical conservation tasks in Durham, Tees and the surrounding countryside.
Contact us: 07 483050765 or north-east@tcv.org.uk
Our tasks vary with the seasons. In winter we enjoy tree planting, woodland thinning, coppicing and hedge laying. In autumn and spring we do a fair bit of pond maintenance and pond creation, and in summer we are busy clearing invasive plant species from habitats and cutting/raking hay meadows. At any time of year we also do small scale construction projects such as improving footpaths, building fences, boardwalks or footbridges.
If you use Facebook or Instagram you can follow @TCV_North_East where we post pictures of our practical conservation work and an update every Friday evening outlining plans for the week ahead. Alternatively, we can send you a weekly email if you request to be put on our mailing list.
