It's fun!

From bird watching to bat spying, and from wildlife gardening to pond de-sludging, there is something for all ages to enjoy. You'll learn new skills, make new friends and enjoy lots of fun together.

It's healthy!

Whether you live in a city or in the countryside, MuckIn4Life will keep you all healthy and active. But you'll enjoy yourselves so much, you won't even notice the benefits.

It's free!

When the kids are at home, finding stuff to do is never easy, or cheap. With MuckIn4Life you'll be helping charities and voluntary organisations look after the natural environment so they won't charge you a penny. In fact they will love having you around.

The summer may be over but there are plenty of activities to fill the autumn and winter months. Whether it's tree planting or pond clearing, fence building or surveying wildlife, there's something for everyone to get involved in.
