Volunteer for the Lost Woods project and help protect our ancient woodlands for future generations.
You can make a real difference to our natural spaces on your doorstep, all while learning new skills and meeting new people.
From volunteering for hands-on conservation to connecting people with nature, there are lots of ways to get involved. Due to the high number of applications we are receiving, we are prioritising those from people living locally within the Lost Woods project area.
Help support our sessional work with children, families, and young carers. We run occasional events, usually in the school holidays or evenings, to encourage nature connection.
If you have an enthusiasm for working with young people and inspiring them to engage with the natural world, and would like to get involved, then we'd love to hear from you.
To find out more about this role or apply, please contact us and Liz from the Action in Rural Sussex Lost Woods team will be in touch regarding next steps.
The role: We are looking for volunteer Walk Researchers to assist in the production of self-guided walking routes, in order to help more local people to explore and enjoy woodlands in the Lost Woods area.
Do you love getting outdoors and exploring public footpaths? Do you feel confident following OS maps and writing route descriptions?
We are looking for people who are willing to also find routes close to public transport links and identify routes suitable for people with mobility aids.
We do request that you live within or very close to the project area.
To find out more about this role or apply, please contact us and Liz from the Action in Rural Sussex Lost Woods team will be in touch regarding next steps.
If you don’t see a volunteer role that quite suits you, then arrange a chat with Liz our Volunteer Coordinator about what you have in mind, or to discuss ideas on what you could do.
Everyone’s invited to be involved in the Lost Woods project (including people with mental or physical health challenges). Please contact Liz for a friendly no-obligation chat to discuss any queries or to get help with completing your volunteer application.

Hi I’m Liz – I’m looking forward to helping you find you the perfect volunteer role, so you can join us in supporting our wonderful local woodlands. Everyone’s welcome here.
I work with disadvantaged communities, supporting them to volunteer, have their voices heard and campaign for better services. I’ve also worked with children and adults with special needs on forest school and woodland projects. And my love of plants led to a diploma in herbal medicine.
Drop me a line at the link below and I’ll arrange to phone you for a chat – or answer your questions by email if you prefer.
