Volunteer at Suffolk Owl Sanctuary

As a small organisation, we always need the support of our amazing volunteers, so perhaps you’d consider signing up to help us if you have any free time?

Volunteering is a vocation ideally suited to those with a love of nature and birds of prey in particular. It offers the opportunity to work closely with a variety of species from around the world as you come to understand and appreciate their characters and on occasion, have the opportunity to fly one of our resident birds during exercise sessions.

Our dedicated volunteers are indispensable, helping us with:

• aviary cleaning and general maintenance
• feed rounds for the birds
• gardening and groundwork
• painting and light construction

If you would like to volunteer with us you’ll be joining a friendly, enthusiastic team of like-minded individuals in what can prove to be an engaging and rewarding experience - indeed, many of our volunteers stay with us for many years, and some have even gone on to join us for a career in falconry.

Ideally we’d ask of your time for a minimum of one regular day per week so that we can plan our rota effectively. If you’re aged 18 and over and you’d like to know more, please fill in the form below to tell us a bit more about yourself and then we can fix an appointment. We look forward to hearing from you!

If you’d like to join our S.O.S. Owl-Reach team as a volunteer to help retrieve injured wild owls and other birds of prey from across the counties, see here how you can support us with this invaluable service.
