As a registered charity, Stroud Valleys Project welcomes many kinds of assistance from individuals and organisations. You might be interested in helping us in the following ways:

• Become a conservation volunteer. Help one of our community groups carry out practical work to benefit wildlife at a site near you! We currently have around 70 volunteers who help on a variety of projects. Why not help out on a practical conservation project by joining one of our community groups? Groups usually meet at weekends, once or twice a month.

• Help out in the SVP office or become a Trustee. Volunteers can provide valuable assistance with a wide variety of administration tasks, keeping the organisation ticking over. There were over 1500 volunteer hours worked last financial year in our office, bringing a multitude of skills and giving enormous help and support.

• Donate materials, equipment, information or expertise - all of which can be just as useful as money! Of course, donations of money, small or large from business or individuals, are very welcome as well.

• Become a Friend of Stroud Valleys Project for as little as £10 per year. As an individual or business, you may not have time to spare, but still want to be involved. By becoming a Friend, you will support projects which help to safeguard our environment for the future.

• Recycle your unwanted mobile phone (with its battery) at no cost to you, and SVP will receive a donation of at least £2 per phone from Greener Solutions - whatever it's condition. For a Freepost envelope, email your home address to us by clicking here.

• Change your telephone provider to The Phone Coop, which is run for the benefit of its members, and not to pay large salaries! This means your calls are very likely to be cheaper than your current provider. Also, at no cost to you, SVP will receive a donation of a percentage of the cost of your calls from The Phone Coop. The changeover does not require any new equipment, or wiring, and is a straightforward process – a win / win scheme! Phone Carolyn Buckley for more information.
