Learning through leisure
There are many ways to learn about Cornwall's wildlife with Cornwall Wildlife Trust. From joining one of our local or specialist groups, to becoming a volunteer, or simply going along to one of the wildlife events held across Cornwall, there is something for everyone.
Local and specialist groups
Cornwall Wildlife Trust has both informal and formal local groups and a number of special interest groups, all working together to conserve Cornwall's wildlife. For more information see our local and specialist groups page.
Fox Club, our junior members' club
Fox Club is the junior branch of Cornwall Wildlife Trust, and the fun-packed events programme is designed primarily for children aged 5 to 11 years and their families. Most of the leaders and helpers at these events are volunteers who have all been police-checked and some are also first aid trained. All events are fully risk-assessed in order to provide the safest learning environment possible for the youngsters taking part.
Education volunteers
We are always looking for volunteers who would like to carry out fun/educational activities with groups of children. No previous knowledge is necessary as you will be fully briefed on the activities and on the messages we want to deliver. For more information please see our Volunteer with Fox Club page.
Wildlife events
There is a huge range of wildlife events organised by Trust volunteers and staff across Cornwall at all times of the year. From walks and talks to boat trips, every event offers the opportunity to learn something about Cornwall's wildlife; there's always an expert on hand to answer any questions, Have a look at what events are happening near you then get out there and enjoy what Cornwall has to offer, you won't be disappointed!
