What our volunteers say

 

‘I like the task focused friendships and being outdoors and that every week is different’.  Judith
'I like the open air and company. I have learned so much from our Rangers Paul and Dave, and I get to use a pitchfork.  I get to see the improvements we have made to the parks, especially here at The Breck, it gives me a huge sense of achievement. I am retired so it gives me a structure to my week and I love to see the beauty, seeing the views and creating new ones'.  Dave.
'I like taking down invasive trees, putting up new fencing and gates and helping other people access the park. I love the area, especially along the see front, it is so beautiful. We have a great crowd of people'.  Mike.
'I like meeting new people and the tasks mean that you always have something to talk about.  I really enjoy working with the Ranger, and have learned so much. There is never any pressure and each week I feel I can do more and become more helpful. It gives a great feeling - to belong to something and somewhere like this'.  Janet.
