Volunteering with VWT

Thank you for showing an interest in sharing your time, skills and knowledge to contribute towards mammal research and conservation in Britain and Ireland.

We will advertise volunteer opportunities on this website or you can follow us on our Social Media platforms to find out when we have opportunities to get involved.

You can also contribute to mammal conservation as Citizen Scientists by looking out for polecats in Britain or Irish stoats across the island of Ireland — and by submitting your sightings. Find out more below.
