Wollaton Park Conservation Tasks

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.

  • Saturday 20 September
  • Saturday 18 October
  • Saturday 15 November
  • Saturday 20 December
  • Saturday 17 January

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.
