About The Conservation Volunteers
We are The Conservation Volunteers but you can call us TCV. Since 1959, we’ve been a charity creating opportunities for people to create, improve and care for nature in the green spaces around them across the UK.
Our variety of projects cover a bit of everything involving nature. Volunteers muddy their boots in parks, community gardens, woodland, sites of special scientific interest, nature reserves, schools, and hospital grounds, helping create a glorious network of protected green space across the UK.
This work connects people with nature, and that connection delivers powerful results.
Volunteer opportunities with The Conservation Volunteers
Fancy some fresh air and good company? Do you love being outdoors, staying active, and making a positive impact in your community? If so, we’d love to welcome you to our two new woodland Hampshire/Dorset TCV Sites.
Volunteering with TCV offers everyone the opportunity to learn new skills and make a difference to their community and it also offers real benefits to your health and wellbeing too. Our volunteering activities have been shown to improve your fitness and enhance mental wellbeing by combining outdoor exercise, increased contact with nature and the social benefits of group activity.
Activities include clearing scrub, planting trees, creating ponds, developing wildflower areas, installing bird and bat boxes, improving the biodiversity of the site.
