Become a Conservator Volunteer with a leading organization dedicated to preserving the beauty of our waterways. Engage in various maintenance tasks while learning new skills, contributing positively to your community, and enjoying time outdoors with a supportive team.
Join us today to become a Conservator Volunteer and be part of the team keeping history alive by preserving our waterways. In this role, you’ll experience the many faces and locations of our beautiful network and help maintain our structures and assets. Whether it’s working on pre-planned maintenance, such as cutting back vegetation around aqueducts, or tackling graffiti in urban locations, our Conservators do a fantastic job of making sure there’s plenty of beauty on the doorstep. This is a great opportunity to make a significant difference in your community while learning more about the canals in your area.
Why we want you
Our Conservator volunteers help maintain our network by carrying out heritage and nature conservation activities, as well as everyday tasks to improve the local environment like painting or litter picking.
They help tackle some of our toughest issues on the waterways, ensuring as much of the canal is accessible and well maintained as possible. Each year, we face new challenges managing our increasingly popular space, and your support will help us achieve our goals in keeping canals alive.
While we have regular teams for important tasks, some projects are on a ‘project’ basis, such as rebuilding stone walls or mass planting, allowing different people to contribute in various ways.
