Details of 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 and let it do the talking. At Slimbridge Wetland Centre visitors can explore unique wetland habitats and the amazing array of birds, mammals and amphibians that inhabit them. Our Living Collection plays a huge role in educating our visitors and raising the profile of wetlands.

Our Aviculture Carpentry volunteers ensure our bird exhibits are as good as they can be for our living collections. There are plenty of ways to get stuck in and help maintain the bird exhibits around Slimbridge Wetland Centre. Working as part of our team, you will get involved in creating new and exciting bird exhibits including nest boxes, pens, aviaries and breeding facilities. We are looking to recruit a variety of practical volunteers who can help us with jobs in association with the Bird Team, so if you have skills in DIY, and want to make a difference to our feathery residents, this role could be for you!
