Regional groups
Our regional groups in the Chilterns and Berkshire play key roles in raising the profile of BBOWT in their area, helping to raise vital funds and increase membership by organising local events and volunteer work parties. Volunteers are needed to serve on committees and to help with activities such as:
- conservation projects in their own locality,
- organising walks and evening talks,
- running stalls at fêtes and charity days,
- raising funds for the Trust,
- recruiting members and volunteers,
- producing local newsletters about local wildlife and conservation.

Our Mission is to engage local communities in taking action for wildlife by delivering a programme of public talks, guided reserve visits, fundraising events and local publicity.
Details of our activities can be found at: bbowt.org.uk/events
We believe volunteering should be fun, so we get things done on a friendly, informal basis. We would welcome more help from new members in delivering our programme of activities, particularly if you would like to support us on marketing or on guided reserve visit coordination.

Berkshire Group
Hosehill Lake by Adrian Wallington
We are a voluntary fundraising group covering Berkshire, including Wokingham, Maidenhead, Slough, Windsor, Bracknell and Reading.
We are always looking for new volunteers to help support our events and sales/fundraising efforts. You don't need to be a member of the Trust to join the group, we simply ask that you come along with plenty of enthusiasm.
Our group aims to increase awareness of the Trust, arrange events, and raise funds for BBOWT. Educational events and training courses are organised at various times. Some of these events are run in conjunction with other charitable organisations, ECONET and Reading & District Natural History Society.
As with all small charitable groups, our activities are determined by the availability, interests and skills of those active within the group. If you can contribute your time and skills, or are interested in finding out more about what we do, we would be pleased to hear from you.
