The role will include collecting data from an upland peatbog site that has undergone restoration, within the Lake District National Park. No previous experience is necessary, though a willingness to spend time in the mountains where weather conditions can change very quickly is essential. Some experience being in and navigating through mountainous environments is beneficial. You’ll be keeping track of how well peatlands are recovering after restoration, and feeding this data back to Cumbria Wildlife Trust. Therefore, your work will be vital in ensuring that the good work undertaken during restoration continues to benefit wildlife that rely on this habitat.
This volunteer opportunity is with our partner organisation Ozawa Wildlife. Ozawa Wildlife is one of Cumbria Wildlife Trust’s partner organisations on the Farming in Protected Landscapes (FiPL) peatland restoration work. This project looks to monitor the development of six areas that have been restored within the last five years, to monitor it, and to flag up any areas of particular interest or concern which can then be followed up by trained members of staff.
