Volunteering Opportunities with Telegraph Woods Nature Recovery Group
About
Telegraph Woods Nature Recovery Group (TWNRG) main goals are to protect, enhance and expand on the biodiversity within the TWNRG Site of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINC) in West End Hampshire. We are currently focused on restoring a scarce heathland area and improving the pond environment to encourage more species to flourish. In addition, we conduct surveys (such as Dormouse Footprint tunnels) and we hold conservation work sessions, fortnightly for a couple of hours on either a Sunday morning or a weekday afternoon.
