The trust is looking for volunteers to help maintain and preserve the natural habitats of this cherished local moorland. They are inviting members of the community to get stuck-in with weekly practical conservation tasks that will benefit the reserve every Wednesday from 10am to 2.30pm.

Volunteers will work as part of the conservation team to make a positive impact to local wild spaces on the reserve and help Staffordshire Wildlife Trust in reaching their goal of preserving 30% of land for nature by 2030.

Interested individuals can apply to get involved by visiting the trust’s website at www.staffs-wildlife.org.uk/volunteering-opportunities/wetley-moor-common-practical-conservation-volunteer

Senior Reserves Officer, Mark Preece says:

“Wetley Moor is a unique and valuable landscape, home to a wide variety of wildlife, including rare birds, plants, and insects. Practical conservation volunteers play a crucial role in maintaining trails, managing invasive species, and participating in conservation projects that ensure the reserve remains a thriving ecosystem for future generations. No prior experience is necessary, and the trust invites anyone interested to apply.”
