RSPB Flight Club

Details Hide[-]

Who are we? 😊

RSPB Flight Club is a brand-new volunteering opportunity designed to give volunteers the practical skills they need for a career in conservation, enhancing employability and breaking down the barriers to employment. Whether you are looking for a career in the field or simply enjoy being outdoors, this opportunity is a chance to learn new skills, gain experiences, help conserve North Wale's diverse wildlife and have fun!
 

What do we do? 🌟

We have a wide range of activities developed in conjunction with the RSPB: wildlife surveys, habitat management, camera trap analysis, scrub clearance, breeding bird surveys and much more. These activities will allow you to develop countless practical skills that you wouldn't otherwise learn, some examples including invertebrate surveying, habitat identification, data recording, species identification (invertebrates, birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians and plants), tool maintenance and management, map reading, submitting data, arcGIS/Field map recording - and much more!
 

Our partners 🤝

Our project is closely linked with the RSPB, allowing our volunteering activities to directly help their conservation efforts. Most sessions will feed into one of the RSPB's larger conservation projects: focusing on Curlew, Chough and Black Grouse, but providing protection to many more endangered species across North Wales. Whatever your interests are - birds, reptiles, insects, plants - we are sure to have a session you will enjoy! 

Thanks to the project's link with the RSPB, you will have the chance to meet many people already working as conservationists, providing valuable insights and even contacts for the future, allowing you to build a picture of your future career.
 

When and how can I get involved? 🤩

We are aiming to run sessions weekly on a Wednesday afternoon - please join our Whatsapp group, follow us on Instagram and sign up to the project here on Undeb for the latest updates and to ensure you never miss an opportunity!
