The Youth Network for Nature is looking for young people in Scotland (12 – 18 yrs) who are keen to meet others interested in nature and wildlife, while also making a difference. The Network brings people together from all over the country to learn and have fun through monthly online meetings, as well as a range of other activities.
This is an opportunity to learn and be part of the UK’s biggest nature conservation charity. The nature crisis is urgent and we need your opinions and ideas! Through our monthly online meetings you will:
Learn about nature and wildlife from experts / Take action to protect and restore nature in Scotland / Gain new skills and find out more about careers in conservation / Be heard by those taking decisions about the future of Scotland’s environment and wildlife /
We believe that young voices are often missing from conservation and how it is delivered, so in between meetings we are often looking for ways young people can help us (often from home). But it’s all dependent on the time you have, and your interests. That’s why we call it ‘micro volunteering.’ Why not sign up and find out more?!
RSPB Scotland is committed to being fair, open, and inclusive. We've tried to make this network as accessible as possible and will accommodate individual needs to the best of our ability. If you require any further information, or if something is missing, please drop us an email at youth.scotland@rspb.org.uk and we’ll be happy to chat more.
After applying and (depending on your age) getting email consent from a parent/carer, we will arrange a quick chat to find out what kinds of things you’re interested in. Then you are good to go!
Green Shoots programmes work with young people from S1-S3 providing extra support in a safe, nurturing environment during the school week. We aim to create a supportive and inclusive space for young people to connect with the natural world, themselves and others in a small group setting. Through a range of practical outdoor activities, young people can develop skills that give them the confidence and resilience to deal with a range of life’s challenges.
Our events volunteers would commit a couple of hours every two weeks to help set up events, run events, facilitate events, and communicate with the team, speakers, and attendees.

Are you green fingered? Good at growing vegetables? Passionate about getting more people growing food in Falkirk?
Project Food at FEL are looking for Volunteers to be Garden Buddies!
You'll be part of a project which aims to plant the seed for healthier, more sustainable futures by helping people grow their own food and make tasty, nutritious meals with it.
Through buddying, mentoring, networking and peer learning, we help community leaders and volunteers share food knowledge and get more produce growing locally.
As a Garden Buddy, you'll be matched to a community project with a garden and will be there to guide them as they develop their growing project.
So, whether you consider yourself an expert when it comes to growing food or you've managed to get some herb pots going and grown some garden veggies – we want to hear from you!
How you support and how much time you commit is completely up to you and who you’re matched with. It could be 1 hr a month where you have a monthly planning session over coffee, it could be ad-hoc remote advice, or it could be a couple of hours a week/month of hands-on involvement in the growing process.
If you don't quite consider yourself an expert, this could even be an opportunity to learn alongside your community project if you are looking to build on your own skills and knowledge
