Advancing the conservation of wildlife and wild places to benefit the public

Volunteering Opportunities

We welcome volunteers and encourage the sharing of skills at White House Farm.

There will be increasing opportunities to assist the Trust as the project at White House Farm progresses.  To register your interest in volunteering please e-mail us.

Our oldest volunteer is 96 and our youngest is 8 years old! 
The tasks our volunteers undertake vary from administration to environmental work.


Volunteer Schemes 
Our volunteering schemes aim to help young or disadvantaged people participate in nature conservation in positive, creative and inspiring surroundings.  There will be opportunities for volunteers to learn new skills.  

Library: Volunteers have access to the free lending section of the farmhouse library at White House Farm.  All books for loan have been donated to The Sinfield Trust and we welcome further donations to extend our reading material for volunteers.

Internet Access: The Sinfield Trust have been awarded a free computer and a year's free BT Broadband internet access by BT Community Connections and volunteers are able to make use of this internet access for nature conservation and related research.
