Event Marshalling for Somerset Wildlife Trust!

Donating a few hours of your time to help as an event marshal or collector, will result in substantial donations to support our work to protect and restore wildlife and wild places here in Somerset.

This is a really fun, one-off, volunteering role, though many of our volunteers come back time and time again.

Add your name to our list of event marshal volunteers so we can see if you're available to help at various events throughout the year:
