Youth Volunteering

< Back to Volunteering Home

For young people aged 13-17 who are passionate about the environment, looking to gain work experience or want to spend time in nature, there are lots of ways you can get involved as a youth volunteer on Hampstead Heath.

We are not currently recruiting youth volunteers, please check back here for updates.

On weekend morning conservation sessions our youth volunteers:

  • take part in conservation and environmental sustainability work

  • help wildlife and nature

  • meet like-minded people

  • gain experience and new skills

You will get involved with wildlife conservation and the management of the amazing habitats of the Heath, largely around the Parliament Hill area. No skills or prior experience needed, everyone is welcome and all equipment is provided.

If you are doing your Duke of Edinburgh Award, we will keep track of your volunteering hours and complete any assessor forms required.

Days and times: Saturdays 10am-12pm

How to join: we are oversubscribed at present, please check back

Younger children: not quite a teenager yet? Children of all ages can attend our family nature walks or volunteer with a parent on our public volunteering sessions - more information here.
