About Wild Work Days
Our Wild Work Days offer your employees a rewarding outdoor experience that is guaranteed to:
- Help the local wildlife
- Improve the physical and mental wellbeing of your employees
- Develop team building skills
- Enhance staff performance
Our Wild Work Days take place on a number of our nature reserves across Surrey and are available from the beginning of September to the end of February. We will always try to match your group to a reserve that works for you as well as a habitat that would benefit from your help.
Activities for the day may include
✓ Clearing scrub and having a bonfire to restore rare chalk-downland and heathland |
✓ Woodland management such as coppicing hazel to enhance dormouse habitat |
✓ Removal of problem plant species such as rhododendron to improve native biodiversity |
✓ Join us on the farm to help with fence removal to enable conservation grazing |
No experience necessary!
We provide an experienced member of staff to run the day, all tools, training, refreshments and Health & Safety expertise, so all you have to do is turn up and have fun.

Don't have a budget?
If your team doesn't have a budget, why not consider fundraising to cover the costs of participating through a fundraising event or sponsored activity? For smaller business teams (up to 5 staff) with no budget it's also possible to participate in a basic volunteering day.
Surrey Wildlife Trust were brilliant in hosting a Wild Work Day for 82 of our staff and were outstanding in explaining why we were removing invasive species to restore the heathland. This was a marvellous opportunity for Nikon to give back to the community while providing a team-building activity for our people.Nikon
