Newcastle University Conservation Society.
We are an environmentally friendly, outdoor appreciating society that places a strong emphasis on doing worthwhile conservation work whilst having a good time. We go on a range of tasks such as coppicing, tree planting, hedge-laying, pond maintenance, dry-stone walling - and much, much more!
No experience necessary. Full training given. Everyone is welcome.
Only for people who like getting wet and muddy and for those who like tea and biscuits
Meeting Days, Times and Venues
We go on weekend tasts - sometimes in and around Newcastle - or further afield such as the Lake District, Scotland or Kielder. If further afield, we borrow the minibus and stay in cheap accommodation. The residental weekends are very fun and we get to see beautiful countryside and find the local pubs
