Types of volunteering available:
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.
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.
“A huge thank you to Sacrewell & the William Scott Abbott Trust for welcoming us so warmly and sharing the important work they do to care for animals, preserve nature and create a space for families to enjoy.
Days like this remind us that when we work together, whether it’s on site, in the office, or out in the community, we can make a real difference & leave a lasting legacy!” – Anglian Water.
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.
