Volunteering is a wonderful way to get out, meet new people and keep active. Here are some opportunities to volunteer across Medway:

Country Park volunteer groups

These groups are either self-led or led by a countryside ranger and are completely based around hands-on tasks such as habitat management or litter picking. These groups volunteer on both weekdays and weekends. For more information on volunteering at a country park, please email medway-countryside-service@ncsgrp.co.uk.

‘Friends of’ Groups

These are independent community groups who maintain, improve, and promote specific parks in Medway. There are ‘Friends of’ groups at many of Medway’s parks and they provide a forum that allows people to discuss ways we can shape the parks and host a variety of activities such as events and fundraisers.
