WWT Slimbridge Canoe Safari Support

Why do we need you?

We’re WWT, the charity for wetlands and wildlife. We’re on a mission to restore wetlands because they are a wondrous solution to our world’s problems. Together we will unlock their power – and help nature burst back to life. Because when wetlands flourish, all life will flourish!

We lead the way, bring life and inspire connection!

At WWT we believe that the best way for people to understand and connect to wetlands is to experience them, so we bring awe-inspiring nature up close and let it do the talking. At Slimbridge Wetland Centre visitors can explore unique wetland habitats and the amazing array of birds, mammals and amphibians that inhabit them. Our volunteers help to welcome and inspire visitors and look after our unique habitats and heritage.

On the canoe safari, visitors can take to the water to see the wetlands and wildlife from a new perspective.

Looking for valuable work experience to gain relevant skills or wanting to spend more time outdoors? Or both? You will assist with greeting our visitors with a warm welcome to canoe safari and assisting with the day-to-day operations you will be helping visitors enjoy a memorable experience every time they visit.

Our main values enrich our community….

By restoring our wonderful wetlands, we gain deeper connections

By inspiring future volunteers, we will inspire others to value, act and benefit from wetlands

To Thrive! We believe our volunteers will thrive in making WWT a more sustainable and inclusive organisation.
