Hebridean sheep at Warburg Nature Reserve by Kelly Hedges

We urgently need volunteers to assist in monitoring the health and welfare of BBOWT’s ‘flying flock’ of Hebridean Sheep on a Wednesday and/or Friday.

No experience is necessary, but an affinity for and understanding of sheep is desirable along with an interest in animal welfare and a willingness to learn about the sheep. You will be given training on site by a staff member and will be expected to visit on the same day each week to walk the reserve.
