NEW Wildlife has been protecting green spaces for people and wildlife since 1986. We are experts in the environmental field, in particular, amphibian ecology and surveying techniques. Volunteers have the opportunity to work with us on projects for Great Crested Newts and gain vital experience working with this protected species. Our sites are also rich in wildlife in general and many other volunteering opportunities are available.
