Keeping Active at your Local Greenspaces and Volunteering (Medway)
Volunteering is a wonderful way to get out, meet new people and keep active. Here are some opportunities to volunteer across Medway:
Country Park Volunteer Groups:
These groups are either self-led or led by a countryside ranger and are completely based around hands-on tasks such as habitat management or litter picking. These groups volunteer on both weekdays and weekends. For more information on volunteering at a Country Park, please email medway-countryside-service@ncsgrp.co.uk.
‘Friends of’ Groups:
These are independent community groups who maintain, improve, and promote specific parks in Medway. There are ‘Friends of’ groups at many of Medway’s parks and they provide a forum that allows people to discuss ways we can shape the parks and host a variety of activities such as events and fundraisers.
