Lough Foyle Site Checks and Maintenance Volunteer

RSPB NI • Volunteering • Limavady, Limavady, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom • 5d ago

This role is about helping RSPB staff to maintain a presence at RSPB Lough Foyle, and offers a great opportunity to patrol the trails while enjoying the wildlife on offer.

What you will be doing?

We are aiming to have volunteers out on the reserve every day of the week, and are looking for people who can be our eyes and ears on the ground. You could be:

Talking to members of the public about the reserve and the wildlife they might see
Checking paths, benches and signage and reporting any issues
Litter picking
Reporting inappropriate behaviour

What skills do you need?

Training and support will be provided but for this role the following are essential:

Excellent attention to detail.
Good people skills, including diplomacy.
Problem solving skills and common sense.

You do not require any qualifications or experience in a similar role, though these are an advantage. We are flexible about the amount of time you can commit to this role.

What's in it for you?

You will enjoy doing your role in a beautiful wildlife rich setting, the great outdoors will be your place of work and you will be able to take it at your own pace. By talking to visitors as you go along, you'll have the pleasure of helping people learn more about the reserve and the work of the RSPB, or just be a familiar friendly face to our regulars. You will be making a genuine contribution to nature conservation. This role will involve some physical activity, so it will enable you to keep your fitness levels high.
