Volunteering in Peterborough
As a charitable trust, our success is deeply intertwined with the essential role of volunteering. We heavily depend on volunteers to maintain the site and ensure the animals look their best throughout the year, thereby contributing to an unforgettable experience for our visitors.
Group Volunteering
Sacrewell is proud to work with a number of schools and organisations as a community outreach centre.
We also welcome corporate volunteer groups and youth groups, who have assisted in conservation tasks such as planting trees, building fences and creating a new willow coppice. If you lead a group who would like to donate their time, get in touch with “Group Volunteering” in the subject line.
Corporate Volunteers and Team Building
Would you like to spend a day with your colleagues out of the office, getting your hands dirty? Corporate team-building days at Sacrewell are a hands-on and active experience.
Projects can vary from clearing woodland, improving wildlife areas, preparing a nature space for schools or digging out a mill stream! These tasks provide a great opportunity for work colleagues to come together as a team and create a practical project in beautiful surroundings while making a positive impact on a charity and community hub.
Work Experience at Sacrewell Farm
Looking for hands-on experience in a working farm environment? We currently offer work experience opportunities for individuals aged 16 and above (Key Stage 5 and college-level students) with our dedicated livestock team.
