What to bring

As you prepare to join us, it's important to come equipped for your volunteering experience. Here’s a checklist of items to bring along to ensure you are comfortable and safe.

Clothing:

• Comfortable Clothing: Bring clothes that are appropriate for a range of activities and weather conditions. Layering and hats are recommended for variable temperatures.

• Sturdy Footwear: Closed-toe shoes are essential, preferably boots. Depending on the activity, you might need waterproof footwear. We have a small stock of wellington boots if required at any stage. 

Personal Items:

• Water Bottle: Stay hydrated throughout the day.

• Sun Protection: Just in case! Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat, especially for outdoor activities.

• Snacks: Whilst we provide basic ingredients for cooking, feel free to bring any additional items that can be stored in the staff kitchen fridge.

• Medication: Any personal medication, including allergy medicine or inhalers.

Technology:

• Mobile Phone and charger/power bank (wifi is available on site)

Additional Items:

• Books - There'll be plenty of time to relax on site. 

• Sleeping bag: If you would like to be extra comfortable in case of cold weather, please bring a sleeping bag. 

• Notebook and Pen: For notes or recording your experience.

• Backpack or Bag: To carry your items comfortably.

If you are travelling from afar remember only to carry only what you need – less is often more.
