CurlewLIFE is a 4-year EU funded project with the aim of preventing the extinction of breeding curlews in Wales by improving their breeding success rate. They are recruiting Surveyor Volunteers to monitor breeding curlews. As a volunteer surveyor you will do two upland bird walkover surveys to identify curlew territories followed by weekly nest visits to monitor success. The walkover surveys will be undertaken between March and June 2023 around Ysbyty Ifan and the Hiraethog area. You will need to be able to identify upland birds and have plenty of patience and perseverance to watch a species which can behave in a very cryptic way around their nest locations. The walkover surveys require a good level of fitness, and at times, you will need to walk over rough terrain in remote locations. You will be provided with training and information, support and opportunities to regularly meet likeminded volunteers. Travel expenses will be reimbursed. They are also recruiting passionate volunteers to help survey habitat quality and predator abundance in one of the last surviving breeding curlew strongholds in Wales.

British Red Cross is recruiting Customer Service Volunteers for their centre in Abergele. If you enjoy being in an office environment, are compassionate and like meeting people then this could be the role for you.

This vital service enables people to maintain their independence and quality of life after an illness or injury. Tasks include providing great customer service, issuing wheelchairs/equipment and receiving returns, using a computer-based stock control system, demonstrating safe use of the equipment, receiving payments / donations. It’s a great opportunity to use your existing skills or gain new ones. All training and induction for the role will be provided. Reasonable pre-agreed travel expenses are reimbursed.
