Get involved in a wide range of hands-on tasks alongside a Nature Buddy. From litter picking and tree planting to scrub clearance and practical woodwork (including fencing), no two sessions are the same.

Suitable for complete beginners, you’ll be supported every step of the way and can take part at your own pace.

All tools and personal protective equipment are provided – just bring yourself and a willingness to give it a go!

All tasks take place in friendly and welcoming groups, where support is always on hand and new participants are encouraged and valued – offering the opportunity to build new skills, spend time outdoors and enjoy the company of others.

Location: Christchurch, at alternating BCP Nature Reserves – Hengistbury Head, Mudeford Woods, Stanpit Marsh and Riversmeet Meadow. Location is sent out in advance.

When:  Tuesdays from 10am – 2pm (no obligation to stay for the full duration, there are coffee and lunch breaks)

No. of Nature Buddy sessions offered: 6 sessions

Level of Support: 0-2
