Volunteer wardens and birdwatchers needed for Westhay Nature Reserve

Could you spare a few hours each week to help Somerset Wildlife Trust?
Somerset's leading environmental charity is looking for stock watchers, wardens for Westhay and bird recorders in the Brue Valley.

The Trust needs stock watchers to help monitor stock such as goats, cattle and ponies, used to graze the nature reserve. Volunteers will work on a rota and have to count stock and check to make sure they are OK. No experience is necessary.

At Westhay the charity is looking for a number of wardens to help SWT staff ensure the bird hides are in good order, help with bird surveys, talk to the public about the nature reserve and recording water levels.

Bird recorders are needed for a number of our nature reserves in the Brue Valley - mainly Westhay and Catcott. People can have a degree of knowledge, but training can be given to keen amateurs.
