Pang Valley Conservation Volunteers
We provide the practical work to help the Project achieve its aims and we also support the conservation work of West Berkshire Council and the local Parish Councils.
Volunteers replacing a footbridge on a right of way - before...
We have a roving brief and work on projects anywhere in the Pang Valley. This means anywhere from East Ilsley and Compton, via Stanford Dingley and Bucklebury to Tidmarsh and Pangbourne. We plant and lay hedges, clear paths and build foot bridges, clear archaeological features and create glades and other habitats in historic woods.
...and after
We provide tools and training and all tasks are lead by trained people. We aim to have fun as well as gaining a sense of achievement in improving our Valley. We expect no fixed commitment. Volunteers are of all ages and of both sexes. You are welcome to come for as long or as short a time as you want and to do work that you feel happy with. If you stay for half an hour – that’s fine. If you stay for four hours – that’s fine as well!
Tasks are advertised on the 'Events Diary' page. We also put them in parish magazines throughout the Valley and in our ‘Upstream’ newsletter.
