volunteering for experience in Yorks/Humberside

[marsonpee]

Hello. Im Andy (25) new to the game wanting a career change. I have completed my cs30 and doing cs31 next week (with scope to do chipper and cs38 early next year) I have my own saw, ppe and transport.

I am just putting the feelers out to see if there is anyone that would like a volunteer for any groundie work to start me on the road with some valuable experience. I would be looking at January time onwards, ill be free weekends and odd days during the week if I have some notice.

 

I currently do a bit of volunteer work with the National Trust as a gardener at Fountains Abbey fortnightly for experience but lacking in any tree focus. Also spend some weekends helping maintain local scout activity centre site, felling small trees and clearing areas etc.

 

I hope that I may be of help to someone somewhere and I would appreciate any knowledge that I may pick up on the way. (I may even bring some jam doughnuts along with me)

 

Cheers Andy

would you be looking just for Arb or would Forestry be of interest too? Is York too far to travel?

[marsonpee]

Both would be of help (I like to be varied) and York is fine for me. I'll pretty much travel to most parts of yorkshire. I;m based Just outside Beverley.
