Conservation volunteers working together

Volunteering for private groups

Clubs, workplaces and friends travelling together on a dedicated placement.

Groups can take a project week as a closed cohort, which suits dive clubs, workplace teams and community organisations.

Group size, dates and task mix are agreed with the project before travel.
