Duke of Edinburgh's Award

Suffolk Wildlife Trust offers volunteering experience as part of your Duke of Edinburgh award. If you would like to make a difference for nature and learn practical conservation skills why not become a Young Warden. 

Young Wardens meet once a month for four hours on a Saturday or Sunday at three of our stunning nature reserves.

• Lackford Lakes, Bury St Edmunds
• Carlton Marshes, Lowestoft
• Foxburrow Nature Reserve, Woodbridge
• Ipswich Green Spaces

Sectional activities such as volunteering need to average an hour a week, with the first and last activities being the full section duration apart. Activities can be longer but less often which allows participants to take on more interesting, challenging and responsible activities. Check with your DofE leader to approve 4 hours per month and then start your volunteering taking action for wildlife!
