Bedfordshire Conservation Volunteers were set up to carry out practical conservation work. The group help with the maintenance and management of Nature Reserves and other sites of scientific importance. The group help to conserve the character and amenity of Bedfordshire and occasionally, further afield, concentrating particularly on wildlife sites. Increasing accessability and understanding of the countryside and environment is also a big part of the group's function. The membership of the group is open to everyone.
All ages come out on task.
The group aims to make volunteering as enjoyable as possible. Every one works at their own pace. Full training in the skills needed is given by experienced leaders. Everyone works as a team and we aim to make new volunteers very welcome. The group meet up most Sundays either for projects or social events such as walks, tours of past sites worked or cycle rides.
