Conservation Volunteer (Ripon Canal Team)

We are looking for new volunteers to join our team on the Ripon canal and the nearby river navigations. Under the guidance of Julie, our local operative, you will help with a wide range of tasks, from managing vegetation to greeting customers on the towpath. No two days will be the same! Whether it’s helping a boat through the lock, talking to customers, litter picking or undertaking vegetation works, you can make a real difference to the local waterways. To carry out this role, you’ll ideally have an interest in the waterway and a good level of physical fitness. The most important attributes are an ability to interact with and help others and flexibility to work on your own or with others. We are looking for people to volunteer Monday - Thursday, ideally one day a week.
