Community Action Days
Community action days and workshops are great ‘one-off’ opportunities to get involved. Workshops have included litter picks, weaving and thatching ‘traps’ to combat coastal erosion and taking part in consultations. One-off sessions and workshops often suit those who want to do something positive for the Bay but can’t make a regular commitment to longer term volunteering. The best way to find out about these sessions is to join our newsletter and be the first to hear.
Volunteering
From time to time, we have volunteering opportunities connected to projects. These can range from hands-on volunteering outdoors, to desk-based research at home to archive visits. Volunteering connected to a project tends to be a defined role and commitment over a period of time. Opportunities are announced in the newsletter so if you want to hear about volunteer recruitment please sign up here. One-off volunteering is available through our Community Action workshops and these often better suit those who can’t make a regular commitment to longer term volunteering.

We don’t have any volunteering opportunities right now….
Volunteering programmes add significant benefit to the Bay, have a positive effect on volunteers and also make people feel more connected to their local communities and spaces. But did you know well-managed, impactful and responsibly-led volunteer programmes come at significant cost? From co-ordinating volunteers, to site visits, to training and equipment, to ensuring volunteers can carry out their role in safety, all takes time and resource. This is why our charity can’t guarantee volunteering opportunities all year round. But when we do, we aim to give you a positive volunteering experience and a real opportunity to make a difference to the Bay.
