VOLUNTEERS are being sought for Dorset Wildlife Trust’s visitor centres.

People are needed to help at The Fine Foundation Wild Seas Centre in Kimmeridge and Wild Chesil Centre at Portland.

Open sessions will be held at both visitor centres in January, when staff and other volunteers will be available to talk about what is involved in the roles.

Abi Mustard, community ranger, said: “We are looking for keen, friendly and approachable volunteers to join our teams, both inside and outside our visitor centres.

"By volunteering for Dorset Wildlife Trust, you will meet likeminded people, receive regular training, learn new skills and have the opportunity to attend the social events arranged for our volunteer teams.”

Volunteers need to be aged 18 or over and want to make a difference for the benefit of the planet and its wildlife.

All training is provided free, and the role is designed to help inform visitors how they can make simple everyday changes to tackle pressing environmental issues.

For roles at Wild Seas Centre at Kimmeridge email Julie Hatcher, kimmeridge@dorsetwildlifetrust.org.uk or for Wild Chesil Centre at Portland, email Sarah Hodgson or Abi Mustard at chesilbeach@dorsetwildlifetrust.org.uk.
