We offer two ways to directly contribute to our efforts to restore nature on the Sharpham Estate. You can choose to help out once a week with our conservation work, or get involved in our monthly survey efforts. This is all part of our rewilding project Sharpham Wild for People.
Tuesdays 10:30 – 15:30
Get active and make a difference with practical conservation activities such as erecting birdboxes, making tree guard or building fences with our ranger Phil. We have space for 8 volunteers at a time.
You must be 18 or over, physically fit and in good health.
Fridays 10:30 – 15:30
Get a chance to take part in conservation surveys as well as general rewilding activities. You may also be asked to help out with public events. This is family-friendly, and we can have 8 volunteers at a time.
Children are welcome.
Ambios offers a limited number of residential volunteering opportunities for people wanting to engage with our work and give back to nature. Placements can be two weeks, four weeks, or up to three months.
