Holly Tree Bashing

Nature Conservation Volunteers

22 Nov 2025 10:30
Date: Saturday 22nd November 2025

Time: 10:30 am - 2:30 pm

Meeting place: Outside Pret

Volunteers will be cutting down small holly trees in Park Wood, to improve the biodiversity in the woodland. This activity provides a great opportunity for volunteers to explore nature. A woodland can become dark and gloomy if there are a lot of holly trees growing close together. This impacts biodiversity in the woodland, as other tree species do not have enough light to germinate. Gradually over time, a species-rich woodland can turn into a wood dominated by holly trees.

Tools and gloves are provided. No experience is needed. Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and strong shoes or boots that you don't mind getting a little muddy. Holly has prickly leaves, so wear old clothes that fully cover your arms, legs and ankles.

Volunteers can borrow wellies and raincoats from Warwick Volunteers.

Light snacks will be provided. Recommended to bring additional snacks and bottled water.

We encourage you to get in touch if you have any specific access requirements, or need more information about the content and delivery method of a specific volunteering opportunity. If you have any requests related to a disability, please email volunteers@warwick.ac.uk giving at least two working days’ notice if possible.

St Francis Employability Support

Do you have a passion for helping the local community? Would you like to use your communication skills to help people? This could be the role for you! In our reception role you will be the first point of contact for people when they walk through our doors. You will be welcoming customers, making sure that that sign- in, showing them to appointments, and providing them with any information they may need to help and support them.
This is a really important role so you must be enthusiastic and willing to speak to lots of different people. Strong communications skills are a bonus but if you would like to improve your communication skills then this role could be a good start.

The key responsibilities include welcoming people into the building and ensuring that they have signed-in, then inputting sign-in data onto the computer to capture the length of time people spend here and the services that they access. You will also be showing people to their appointments to ensure that they attend in a timely manner.

If this sounds like something you would enjoy then please apply. You will be provided with all the training you need before you start, so don’t worry if you feel that you don’t meet every requirement.
