Volunteer
Volunteers make a huge contribution to keeping the city’s parks beautiful for everyone to enjoy. There are opportunities for both individuals and organisations to get involved with a wide range of projects throughout Cardiff’s parks.
Practical Conservation sessions
Join the monthly sessions with the Bute Park Ranger and the Friends of Bute Park to assist with conservation tasks, to help maintain and improve Bute Park’s habitats.
Tasks include:
- Clearing paths
- Cutting back overgrowing brambles
- Litter-picking
- Hay-raking
- Bulb planting
- Cleaning signs and posts
- Pruning
All tools are provided and you will be given instruction by our team on the tasks we will carry out.
Any volunteers under the age of 18 years need to be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
New dates are added to book via Eventbrite here when available.

With the help of communities, Coed Caerdydd aims to increase Cardiff’s tree canopy from 18.9% to 25% as part of One Planet Cardiff.
There are various volunteering roles within this project; including tree planting, tree guardianship and nursery volunteering.
