Want to make a real difference in your local park?
Friends of Wollaton Park work alongside the Park Rangers on vital conservation projects. From hands-on habitat improvements to seasonal tasks, you’ll be directly contributing to the beauty and health of our green space – and having fun while you do it!
Join our friendly team on the 3rd Saturday of each month at 10 am by the iconic Red Phone Box.
We also normally meet in one of the cafes afterwards for a free drink (please bring a re-usable cup) and chat.
Car parking passes can be arranged by the task leader.
Come be a part of something special!
Tasks may be changed or cancelled at short notice due to local park conditions or unforeseen circumstances.
