Volunteer Days
Bi-monthly volunteer days dedicated to conservation activities at Millers Pond Local Nature Reserve

About Volunteer Days
​
The reserve is conserved and protected by local volunteers. We would not be able to manage without your help. Each month we host volunteer days to complete essential conservation tasks.
​
Tasks vary seasonally, but these are some examples:
- Path widening. During the summer, pathways can become overgrown.
- Litter picking. The less litter there is the less likely people are to drop it!
- Invasive species removal. Sadly, there are some plants that are not welcome. We have to do our best to prevent them from overgrowing.
- Culvert clearing. Making sure the two streams leading to the pond don’t get blocked up.
- Coppicing. Managing the growth of the copse in the grasslands.
​
All are welcome, and equipment is provided. Simply show up! There are always a range of different tasks available to suit different levels of experience, comfort and ability.
