Conservation Working Holidays
How does a conservation working holiday differ from a 'normal' holiday?
This is an opportunity to volunteer your time and skills to help out, you pay for your travel and something towards your keep; it's also a fun way to gain new skills, make new friends.
Email details of your conservation holidays for inclusion to ranger@countryside-jobs.com
Simple linage for general holidays is free for up to 50 words. Standard linage (with the headers) is for holidays on specific dates and can include a description of up to 150 words at no cost. Any queries please contact us for more detail or advice: ranger@countryside-jobs.com
Lundy Field Society
The Lundy Field Society sends at least three working groups to Lundy each year. The work is varied and sometimes quite demanding on very steep locations but is vital to the welfare of the island. Jobs include drystone wall maintenance and general tasks involving the eradication of invasive rhododendron. lundyworkingparty@gmail.com http://www.lundy.org.uk/index.php/what-we-do/conservation-work
