Landowners, householders, schools or parish councils may be eligible for free advice on managing sites for wildlife conservation or on facilitating rural recreation. This could involve a site visit followed by a letter or small management plan summarising the recommended options.
In some cases, where there would be sufficient public or environmental benefit, the WVT may carry out practical work, either with volunteers or by employing contractors for larger tasks.
Individuals or community groups with a project that relates to WVT objectives can benefit from expertise, organisation and materials supplied by the WVT.
By helping with practical work to conserve wildlife habitats or enhance countryside access, volunteers can learn some basic skills and gain an understanding of countryside management issues. See Volunteering page.
For details of leaflets on walking and other rural recreation, see Recreation page. For information on development and planning issues see Planning Constraints.
Educational field trips within the project area for schools are designed to give first hand experience of biological, ecological or geographical processes to support classroom study of National Curriculum themes (see the Education Page for more details). Guided walks, bicycle rides or talks can be organised for clubs or groups.
