Employee Engagement
Engage your employees
From individual employee volunteering to wild work team days, find out how BBOWT can engage and motivate your employees - and help nature near you.
Individual Employee Volunteering
At present, BBOWT’s volunteering opportunities are set up for individuals who can make a long-term commitment to undertake regular activities throughout the year. The volunteer groups are self-managing and can usually only accommodate up to 3 new joiners at a time. If this is of interest, click below to find current volunteering opportunities.
Some weekly volunteer teams might be able to accommodate volunteers who visit less frequently than once a week; this information will be given in the role description.

Wild Work Team Days
Your team can join us at a local nature reserve for a day of conservation activities that make a difference to nature, all while connecting with their colleagues through this team building activity.
Employees who participate in a BBOWT Wild Work Team Day often return to work feeling happier, healthier, and more positive - over 80% report improved wellbeing after just one day!

Wild Wellbeing Days
- Nature-inspired activities to improve employee wellbeing.
- Educational talks on nature and wellbeing.
A Wild Wellbeing Day offers a rejuvenating experience in nature, featuring guided walks, mindfulness sessions, and creative activities.
Participants connect with the environment, enhance mental health, and enjoy the tranquillity of natural surroundings. It's a perfect opportunity to unwind, reflect, and foster a sense of community while promoting overall wellbeing.

Wildlife Gardening involving business staff on site
BBOWT's Wildlife Trust consultancy, Future Nature, can come to your business premises to help advise you on how to improve your garden beds and landholding as a whole for nature.
Our community ecologists can hold wildlife gardening sessions or all-day events at your grounds to engage your staff in improving your business premises, which is a win for nature and your employees’ overall sense of community and wellbeing.
