Volunteering at Amelia Trust Farm
The Trust could not continue its current work without the help of volunteers, volunteers form the backbone of what the Trust stands for and outworks on a daily basis. We try and ensure that everyone benefits from volunteering by gaining new skills, increased confidence, whilst having an enjoyable time, contributing to the development of the Trust.
There are a number of different volunteer opportunities available at the Farm, they include: Woodland work, Conservation tasks, Gardening, Animal husbandry Farm work, General Maintenance & Visitor Centre work.
If these interest you, please complete a volunteer application form, the Trust will then contact you and arrange an informal interview. This will allow you to see if we are right for you and vice versa. Generally, people work for one or two days a week and only in exceptional circumstances go above this figure.
Many jobs on the Farm involve physical outdoor work, it is therefore essential for you to bring suitable clothing and strong footwear. We will supply any tools and equipment required for your work.
When on the Farm, we ask you to put safety first, so please pay attention to instructions given, information notices and warning signs and make sure that you fully understand what you are doing/using.
Volunteers and placements will be assigned various tasks, depending on Trust priorities, people’s interests etc. Full guidance or instruction will be provided for any task you carry out.
