Across the region, TCV delivers a wide variety of biodiversity enhancement projects, including: Wildflower meadow creation to support pollinators and increase plant diversity. Tree and hedgerow planting for canopy, habitat connectivity and carbon capture. Wetland and pond restoration. Woodland management to improve habitat structure and resilience. Species monitoring and citizen science activities to track biodiversity. You’ll play a key role in planning and delivering these projects with volunteers from diverse backgrounds. You’ll also help create a positive, inclusive environment where volunteers feel valued and inspired. Throughout your time as a VO, you’ll be supported by a nominated Senior Project Officer who will oversee your training and development. While you’ll primarily work on their project, you’ll also have opportunities to shadow and assist other staff, giving you a broad range of experience across different habitats and conservation techniques.
