About The Role

At WWT, we believe that the best way for people to understand and connect to wetlands is to experience them, so we bring awe-inspiring nature up close. We are looking for friendly, outgoing volunteers to support visitor activities, bringing experiences to life! You will be contributing to this aspect of our work by assisting the Education Department with the delivery of outdoor workshops for schools and other educational groups.

Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team, and we wouldn’t be able to maintain our internationally important wetland sites without their help. You will receive a very warm welcome, full induction & training, and be provided with any necessary equipment, uniforms, and anything else needed to thrive in your role.

Main tasks

Martin Mere has a range of activities available for visitors - you can choose to do them all to develop your experience or just focus on a few areas:

Assisting with the visitor service desk – meeting and greeting visitors on arrival, selling bird food, handing out Dragonfly Festival event guides
Undertaking moth trapping activities, otter talks, and flamingo talks
Helping to undertake the daily pond dipping activity by showing visitors what to do and helping to identify pond life species
Assisting with the Dragonfly Festival activities including a science show, story time, and a dragonfly bubble party

About You

No previous experience is required for this role as full training will be provided, and a willingness to learn new skills is more important.

However, this role would suit you if:

You feel confident in talking to and engaging with members of the public, and are able to adapt your communication style to suit the audience (particularly children)
You have a good basic knowledge of UK wildlife and conservation
You enjoy working as part of a team of staff and volunteers
You are happy to work outside in all weather conditions
You are reasonably physically fit – as this role will involve some lifting and bending
You are reliable and have excellent time management to ensure sessions run on time
You have a strong commitment to excellent customer service
You have prior experience in an educational or learning setting
You are friendly and approachable with a positive attitude

About Us

We are WWT, and we’re on a mission to restore the super-powered ecosystems we call wetlands. There’s never been a more important moment for our work, and we’ve got some phenomenal people on the case.

Whether you’re looking to meet new people, learn new skills or spend time in our wildlife-rich wetlands, there’s a volunteer role for you. Just a few hours spent volunteering can really make a world of difference to our wildlife, and to you.

So, come surround yourself with the wonder of wetlands, and the people who inject their energy and passion into them. Whatever you do here, you’ll be helping to restore wetlands and unlock their power. The only question left is, what role will you play?

Why you’ll love volunteering at WWT

Work at one of our beautiful and internationally important wetland sites
Be surrounded and inspired by like-minded nature lovers who bring energy, passion, and expertise to their role
Make new friends and become part of a friendly and inclusive community
